Electrical Problem

My 95 PSD is having a minor electrical problem. Sometimes the Wait to start light doesn't come on. The glow plugs are cycling. I know that because of the voltage drop on my volt gauge. The main problem that this is causing is. When the wait to start light doesn't come on and after I crank the engine the brake and ABS indicator lights on the dash come on and stay on. The problem comes and goes. I've checked all the fuses pulling each one to make sure that each fuse was getting good contact and that none were blown.

Have any of you guys had this type of problem before?

Wonder if maybe your ABS system is starting to act up. If you have a wiring schematic check to see if the "wait to start" circuit is integrated with the ABS in any way. Could be that if the ABS has a fault the "wait to start" won't come on.

You were right. It was a problem with the ABS system. Without going into a lot of detail I was able to resolve the problem and all's fine.
