Ok, so I did the glow plug timer mod yesterday as per the below sketch and have a couple of questions.
It works ok but the red light will only come on if you turn the key to the on position then quickly turn it back to accessories then on again, once it times out it starts fine but the red light comes on again for the time set :frown:
Also, the green light goes out after a while, it seems to be when it gets up to temperature, I did notice as well that when the engine is is at operating temp if you shut it down, leave it for a few minutes and start it again the lights don't come on at all, I am presuming that if its close to the prescribed operating temp then it doesn't initiate the glow system
Any ideas, have I wired it up wrong or missed something??
