My starter shorted out melting the post off the battery and a few wires.
I had the starter rebuilt, upgraded and replaced the wiring but running into an issue.
The glow plugs will not heat and the starter will not engage using the ignition. All of the other electrical systems work fine.
I can get the starter to turn over using a screwdriver.
I have 24v coming off the driver side battery. 24 volts at the ignition switch. 24v going into the regulator (on the engine bay firewall by the blower motor) but only 10v at the glow plug relay. If I engage the manual glow plug switch that 10v drops to zero.
I’m not great at testing relays but there has to be something after the ignition that is causing the voltage to drop.
Any ideas???
