If I create a separate switch should it be with a 30 amp fuse or 10amp fuse?

If I remove a glow plug and connect the wire from the ignition directly to it then it should get hot if the wire and ignition are working properly. Correct?

Shouldn't something else be getting very hot if the amperage isn't going to the plugs? I feel like wires should be melting or something?

I'm not an expert in this area which is why I ask "why?". I will figure out how to test for amperage and go from there. Your input was helpful. Thank you.

Clean as a whistle. If the wire was bad why would I get a reading at the glow plugs when it's in preheat?

Must be some part I've overlooked

I'm at a loss. I just don't understand how I can get a reading at all the plugs when the ignition switch is on heat plugs and yet the indicator light won't go off and I can't get it to start. Yet when I bypass the ignition to heat yhe hlow plugs, everything functions normally including the...

Does that wire return signal to the glow indicator light to shut off when the plugs are hot enough?

I think k I need to step away from the machine for a few days and come at it with fresh brain and eyes.🤣

I traced the glow plug wire and it does split off and go into the controller/ combination box

Sorry for the repeats. This forum format is messy with all the ad pop ups. Very annoying.

Yes to both.

Prior to replacing this device I was getting no voltage to the glow plugs when the combination was in the preheat position. I had to turn the machine of manually at the shut off solenoid before this replacement too.

This is what I'm calling the controller

Cranks but doesn't start. I simply run a wire from the battery to the middle glow plug terminal. When I do this the glow plug indicator light turns on then off and I go and start the tractor. The ignition is turned off when I do this bypass prime.

I think I may just install a separate toggle switch directly from the battery yo the glowplug terminal and give up on this problem.

Tested each of these points. Apologies for double image
