Glow plug relay replacement
I posted this question originally in the 68 and up full size van section, but I think maybe it should have gone here
.
Hi, all. I've lurked the forums to find this issue, but not seeing it. I know I have a bad glow plug relay (have to short to start). It has 3 terminals. All of the replacement relays seem to come with 4 terminals. Maybe this is a simple issue, as it must have happened to anyone who replaced this thing. So I guess the question is, how do you use a new one (with 4 terminals)? Would one of the smaller terminals go to ground? Any info appreciated. Thanks,
Steve
