Another Glow Plug problem. Clicking won't stop. Turned out to be the wipers
I have spent a while looking thru the old post trying to find the same problem as what I have, with no luck. If someone knows of a thread, pls point me in the right direction.
All 8 GP's have been replaced with the beru's.
When I turn the key I get the wait to start light.
Turn the key the rest of the way and it starts right up.
Then I get the cycle on and off of the GP's, I see all the dash lights dim up and down.
This is where I am stumped. I thought this was normal until the engine was warm.
The clicking or cycle never stops, 100 degrees outside and even after the truck running for two hours I still have the dimming lights on the dash. Not the wait to start light, but all the dash lights that may be on and the radio display.
Could this be the temp sensor at the rear pass side of the block?
I was trying to find something on this since I am heading to ford in a few minutes to grab the cold start advance sensor, and thought I would save a trip.
I would almost want to say that I want to set the truck up with a manual GP push button since unless its the middle of the winter I don't think I need the GP's to cycle at all execpt for the first start. It appears that right now they cycle every time the keys turns on. Is this correct? And do I need them to cycle every time?
Thanks
Tom
