Hi all,
I had a failure on my glow plug circuit recently.
Yesterday, before moving to a manual operation of this circuit,I check with
voltmeter and finaly found the reason of this problem:
A bad soldering on one of the terminals of the coil of the relay feeding the
glow plugs.
I have removed the 4 rivets sealing the relay, made a new(good) stain
soldering and fit it back and the circuit is now working.
2 years ago,few time after I own this truck, I face another problem with the
relay under the dash operating the starter:contacts welded so starter don't
disengage then I open this relay and polish the contact with a file and
abrasive paper. Up to now it work!
If this can help someone!!

Any information on how to do this? I was always worried about this
happening since I can hear it cycle when the engine is already running. Can
the 'wait' light still be utilized in this case?
