Mate, just join Photo bucket, it's free. http://photobucket.com/
First instal pics on computer, then go to photobucket.
Click upload, then browse photos, find your photo, double left click on photo, then once photo is on photobucket, click bottom panel on pic, it will say copied.
Click edit at top again, box will open, click copy.
Go to forum, start typing something, hit enter for next line, go to edit again, click, box will open click paste.
With a bit of luck, we may get some pics.
Cheers, the ferret.

With the top row of pins there should be only 2 pins that are being used, 1 pin should have a brown wire in it (this is the ignition feed from the 15 amp fuse you keep blowing) and the other wire colour should be Green wire with a White trace, (this wire connects to the glow plug relay).

All you need to do is connect two wires, one to the brown wire and one to the Green with a White trace and then connect the other end of the wires to your momentary push button switch.

To test, connect your test light or voltmeter onto one of the glow plugs or busbar, turn ignition on and then push the switch in.

The test light or voltmeter should now light up or show about 12 volts.

I would use a good quality momentary push button switch, the last thing you would want is the contacts in the switch to short together causing the glow plugs to stay on.

If you intend on having this permanently setup with the switch, we can add a warning light into the circuit.

Yendor Thanks again for your info ,
I finaly got arround to needing the old girl again, (tow the roller over the driveway)
So, as i havn't got that switch/button yet, i have just jumperwired it direct in the plug,
turned on ign, heard the glow relay click, 10 sec wait and it hit up straight away,
Very happy chappy, now to finish the job properly,
Just a update on this thread, will post some pics later with the roller and at work, today tomorrow.

I just did the same thing mate. Too many beers haha

Im going to try this today, fingers crossed its the solution
