update: After replacing the blown transistor, I still was not getting any power to the secondary glow plug solenoid. So I ended up getting with an electrician, buddy, and we found that no power was coming from the transistor bar, which he assumed was caused by a bad diode somewhere on the board...

yeah, been through this in the beginning. I bought and used that extractor already, life saver! Hopefully the transistor blew without affecting the plugs. Waiting a few days for a new one. Updates to come soon. Thanks.

copy all. So after poking around, I found that one of the transistors leading to/from the internal solenoid had blown. I’m first going to put in a new transistor. The internal solenoid is still good. If my plugs are not burnt, it may have only been a failed transistor. I’m going to see if that...

Hi Joe, so a few months ago I followed your instructions and put my glow plug power control through another solenoid and onto a plunger switch on the dash. This worked absolutely perfect for about 7 months. I went for a ride the other night, and the next morning I went to start her up and heard...

Understood, thanks for the info. Will post some progress pics once I start. 👍🏻

Awesome, good to know, thanks!

Hi all. I am currently awaiting delivery of my new-to-me project ‘04 M1097A2. Only had to wait 2 days for approved EUC, curious how quick it was. Anyway, I’m not new to Steel Soldiers, having already fixed up a Fermont 803a. However, I am new to the HMMWV threads. I am looking for the most...
