Working on finishing the wiring on my 6.2l swapped M37.
Having trouble finding the specs on the stock 24v HMMWV glow plugs, to properly size a fuse for the main hot wire to the solenoid.
Here's my layout
2- group 31 batteries under the pass seat, 4 ga wire ran from the batteries to the glow plug solenoid under the hood. The solenoid is activated by a M35A3 start switch, which uses a standard military circuit breaker to receive power.
Would really like to add a fuse just off the batteries to protect the feed wire incase of incident, but unsure of a proper size. Gut says 50amp should do it, being 24v should draw half the amps of the 12v counter part, and seems the general consensus is they draw 10amps.
But rather have it right then guess.
Thanks
