Ok so someone forgot to label all the wires on this build. No sense in pointing fingers. What is done is done and we are where were at now.
Anyway...
The glow plug system and wait to start light worked pre build so I know it works and everything is fine. Just need a nudge in the correct direction.
The relay and controller system were upgraded before I purchased the truck. Push button glow plugs. When u push the button the glow plugs come on as does the light. Or it did... and I think the glove plugs are working because I see a power draw and I hear the click. But no light as before.
The fuel pump was also upgraded at some point and when the key is in the run position the fuel pump gets 12v. That works.
The relay terminals were labeled 1-4.
1. 1 wire to 24v glow plug resistor pack on firewall
2. 3 wires. Connected to electric fuel pump, switch lead for button and a mystery wire.
4. 2 wires Connected to orange engine harness wires that lead to glow plugs.
All of those were labeled... but I distinctly remember all 4 posts being a jumbled mess...
Now for our two mystery wires...
I have a purple wire lead. Larger gauge. I think its connected to ignition system. I also have a much smaller gauge wire thats light blue and im certian it goes to the little circuit board under dash inside the cab. I believe thats the controller.
Right now the purple is connected to terminal 3 and light blue is not connected at all.
And. Question. Do all of the glow plugs have to be connected to test system. I have 5 /8 connected. Turbo header on left bank makes attaching gps a pain in The ass...
Will attach a picture or pictures shortly
