This positive input will monitor the Glow Plug Light in Diesel Mode: it will wait until the Glow Plug Light goes out to crank the Engine. Connect to the side of the Glow Plug Light that is positive when the Light is on. Note: In Diesel Mode there is a 18-sec. crank timing delay (or approximately 25-sec. if the run time is set to 30 min.): if the Glow Plug Light is still on after the delay expires, the Module will proceed to start the Engine. (Also known as the “wait-to-start light”.) The

− It always better to strip more than you need, than not enough. A common way cold solder joints happen is when not enough plastic is stripped off the vehicle's wire, so during the soldering process the plastic from the wire melts and flows in to the connection instead of the solder. − Decide where the module is going to be mounted. It is ALWAYS mounted inside the passenger compartment, and never in the engine bay. Under the driver's side of the dash there is usually enough room for the m
