As usual I have the clicking coming from my relay. It started 2 weeks ago. I came home from a long drive and the next morning at the end of the cycle I heard a couple clicks and she fired right up. didn't to it again for a week. Then it steadily got more often until I got tired of having to work her to start.
I tested all my glow plugs with a light and they light up great. I went a step further and ohmed them all out
readings being like so
2-1.7 1-2.0 ohms
4-1.3 3-2.1
6-1.3 5-2.1
8-1.4 7-2.3
I notice there is a lot of variance in them, but I was looking at my wires and I am questioning if the glow plugs are even bad.
I bought the truck and the kid before me had swaped all of the connections to spade connections and 6.9 gps so he could run a manual system. I had a mechanic of mine switch it back to bullet style connectors. He simply crimped on blue bullet ends to the wires. That's all fine and dandy but I noticed the wire right next to the end has become white on some. The wire on those is bent due to me being an idiot and pushing down on the tops whenever I pulled them off and since I didn't have much to grab onto likethe factory ones it was the easiest way to push em down. Im thinking I may have broken a few wires of and am barely getting a connection. Is there any way I can test it, or anyone have any ideas as to where to go with this?
If need be I know where I can get another harness if you guys think that is the problem and if that would be easier, but it is 2 hours away.
