I was building a winch mount on my M1009, and forgot to unhook my battery cables while weldin on it. Now my glow plugs aren't heating up. I put a test light on the wires that attach to them, and theres no elect. goin to them after I turn the key on. What do ya'll think????

It is a very reare case, however I think you just did blow your pre glow electronics which are located behind the dash in a approximately 3 by 2 inch black housing (If the junk still worked). Over some 120,000 miles due to experiance this electronic device discontinues its service. The plugs are 5 second plugs without the electronic control. There are no regulator wires inside the plug. So with 7 seconds of glowing without electronis the plugs are blown. Have a nice relation to your AC Delco dealer to get a set of new ones.

P.S. Hummr plugs are 24 Volts and have different connector sizes!

Sounds like it's time to get rid of the GP controller, get new plugs and do the manual GP button modification. Just do a search. Lots of info on the forum. Been discussed many times. Good luck!

The GP relay is not 24 volt.

It is a 12 volt relay!


The correct part number from the thread you read is,
TROMBETTA RELAY #974-1215-010-09
Cost is $34.50 plus shipping
The number you posted above is incorrect!

If there weren't so many threads on this, it would be a lot simpler to understand what you need. And now, this thread will screw the next guy, if he doesn't read through the incorrect information.
