    Manual glow plug wiring

    yes voltage was taken with a multi meter, there's 3 red wires connected to the top of the relay, the top most one goes to the gp switch, then next one below goes behind the air filter to a rectangle looking thing(I guess this is the resistor, then the final red wire goes to the top bus bar...

    Manual glow plug wiring

    Yes, you are correct , 1 red wire going to the switch it's a smaller one, 1 red to the bus bar , and 1 behind the air filter, truck had been converted to 12 volt. Bottom of the relay has 3 orange wires. (2) big ones and (1) smaller orange wire. Then a small black wire on the front middle of the...

    Manual glow plug wiring

    Ok just checked the glow plugs they are getting power. However, the wiring diagram and what currently on the truck is totally different. Currently on the truck there are 3 red wires connected to the top of the relay, 1 goes to the positive term bar, 1 goes to i guess the resistors behind the...

    Manual glow plug wiring

    10-4, One problem at a time lol Okay, so i would put the key in and turn and get nothing almost like it was completely dead, not spinning nothing. I tend to agree with what you said that maybe the PO hooked this relay up wrong. I will check to see if I have power to the glow plugs when the...

    Manual glow plug wiring

    also, what is that red wire for that is run from the top of the relay to the switch? Ive read almost every post on the manual switch and don't recall reading two wires running to the manual switch? I could be wrong as well, just trying to get to the bottom of this. It has been a pain to start...
