Manual Glow Plug Problems

[gt1009]

So I just put a manual glow plug switch into my truck, but when I turn the key the wait light still comes on just like before.
I cut the light blue wire coming from the controller, wired the end that goes into the contoler into the switch, grounded the other side of the switch, and then left the other end of the light blue wire hanging there with tape around it. Did I have to do something else, or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks for the help,

You have only cut the output of the module. It is still functioning and the only thing it is not doing is tripping the solenoid. The light is still wired to the module. The light is not wired to show when the glow plugs are active. It is for the module telling you it is ok to start the truck. Most of the time the glow plugs are still active for a few seconds after the start. You did nothing wrong and can use the light to tell you when to let go of the button.

Take out the controller card and put it in your safe deposit box...just like a $100 bill.. ACE

Fixed it
I had hooked up the wrong end of the light blue wire to my switch
For further reference, the end that goes to the solenoid hooks to the switch.
