    88 r2500 CC, 6.5 retro, 12v lighting gone if running

    I finally got a decent day to pull it out and go back through it again. All batteries, cables, connections good and clean. This is wired civi, so the junction block is wired correctly the best I can tell from schematics. Everything appears to be stock, other than the added manual glow plug...

    Thank you for the reply sir. After further thought, I believe this rubber booted switch might be a manual glow plug switch. If I hold it in, I get all lighting, glow plugs light comes on, then out, then I can start and drive normally, with or without holding the switch in. However, if I...
