Hey All
When I purchased my truck it came with a manual glow plug switch previously installed but it has constantly given me trouble. I have removed and cleaned off all connections and replaced a couple terminal rings that were worn. Even put in a new breaker. It tends to work for several weeks then something happens again. Right now you can hear the switch "click" when engaging but the voltage on the dash doesn't drop. I have to crank the engine for 15-20 seconds then flip the switch and the voltage drops. I am not super familiar with these systems so not sure how to trouble shoot further, if it's a faulty switch or harness or battery or glow plugs or what. Was told when I got the truck a little over a year ago that the harness and plugs had been replaced recently with oem. Was thinking at this point to just start over with a dialed in classic diesel design conversion kit since I know how top notch the quality is. Unless I am missing an easy fix. Thanks again!
