    Resistor bypass and belt squeal **FIXED**

    Thats not a big deal really in the scope of things! As long as it starts good. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    Resistor bypass and belt squeal **FIXED**

    Yeah I don't have that on any of mine but I know it works. Make sure you don't run them to long they'll expand and stop working....then that'll be an entirely new thread to fix. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    Resistor bypass and belt squeal **FIXED**

    Yes the resistor is only used for direct power from both batteries through the glow plug relay to the glow plugs in the stock setup. Other than that it does nothing. So in theory back to your belt squeeling issue, one battery getting the glow plugs going will definitely load the one alternator...

    Resistor bypass and belt squeal **FIXED**

    As far as the alternators go for the glow plug resistor they don't really have anything to do with how it gets power since the battery/s do all the work. I like the 24 volt system even though all mine don't use the resistor. The starter is about it on the engine. I use the jump port for running...

    Resistor bypass and belt squeal **FIXED**

    The splitting is actually extremely simple. The resistor gets its power from the fire wall junction box which both batteries are hooked to giving it 24 volts...this is stock. Removing the resistor only requires running the power wire to the glow plug relay from the 12 volt junction box next to...

    Resistor bypass and belt squeal **FIXED**

    Good deal on the batteries..the block I should have said where the 12 volt line comes from the battery to the firewall. Pop a heat gun on that too just to see if you have some resistance on the connection. Headlights draw some amps but not a ton. The blower motor on high should pull more...I'd...

    Resistor bypass and belt squeal **FIXED**

    The resistor bypass does put the load on one battery vs 2...goes directly to 12 volt vs being knocked down from both batteries 24 volt to 12...my guess would be the battery is weak and the headlights load is bringing it down. Put a volt meter on the block and see how low the volts go. Are the...
