So last night I got my wilson switch done as per this drawing:
Woa! What a difference, the truck has never started so easy or smoothly as it did this morning, even in summer (-10C this morning). I even had a fully working superglow system before my Wilson switch and it was nowhere near as nice to start.
Interestingly when I push my Wilson switch button the glow system works perfectly but my glow indicator light burns out instantly. I even replaced the bulb to double check.
Now so far as I know (I believe Greg_B's write up taught me) The 7.5A Glow fuse does nothing but light the indicator light, So when I spliced in my power for my wilson switch I am not sure what would cause the immediate frying of the bulb.
I even verified the wiring (old matching color code method) before I cut the splice in. I also verified with a multi-meter which side of the bulb socket was ground and which was +24V. Any thoughts as to why this may be happening?
My only thought is that it may have something to do with my glow timer, which is still functioning perfectly, I would have removed it if I could for the life of me find it. I disassembled the entire passenger side of the interior looking for it, to no avail. Although I did find evidence of the POs apparent love of wiring, so for all I know it could be anywhere by now...or removed all together.
