Been having trouble getting my 20 year old poorly maintained diesel started here in Kazakhstan now that it is starting to get cold at night - zero to -3. I have only owned this for a few months. Its a mess of old oily wires, some going nowhere, but it is still fun to drive for the price I paid.
Anyway, I downloaded the manual and was looking at the wiring. And look what I found! No wonder it is having trouble starting in the cold:

From the manual's wiring diagram that white wire is not going where it needs to go!
Looks like the large glow plug bank is not getting any power... Am I right on this one?
Thanks for the help!
