Participated in the ARRL VHF contest yesterday from a mountain top site. Band conditions were lousy until I got home. Then 6 meters had a nice opening for a little bit. Figures.
These are the connectors I was referring to.

Double connector

Single connector
Very interesting idea.
One thing to keep in mind, the GP's draw 100 amps when all of them are working. All of your components will need to be rated for that amperage draw.
Where would you mount the knife switch and protect it from accidental contact on the exposed parts of it? Perhaps use a...

Are you doing a M1008 or M1009 truck? I purchased 2 of these for 2 M1009 trucks.
The first one fit pretty well. It's not an exact fit and does not have any holes punched in it for the seats, seat belts etc.
The...
Rick,
I used the NAPA ones on my M1009. They do fit...sorta. You might need to massage the aluminum bends on the engine side.
The next time I will replace the rubber part and reuse the aluminum ends. The factory aluminum ends are a better fit than the NAPA ones.
Check or replace fuse #17 in the attached picture. It's labeled the Engine Control Fuse. That fuse controls the GEN2 relay, Voltmeter relay, Water in Fuel light and other things. If that fuse has no voltage on either side of it, then check the fusible link red wires on the terminal block on the...
I agree with checking the linkage to ensure that it moves freely. I had the same issue on one of my trucks. Some lube on all of the connecting components helped substantially and kept the motor from overheating.
The wiper motor has +12 volts to it from the fuse box. It gets a ground command...
If you have a voltmeter, check the voltage on the large terminal of the glow plug relay that has the orange wires. Need to know what the voltage is when it is closed and providing voltage to the orange wires.
I think you either have a bad GP relay or multiple glow plugs that are not working...
