I know my batter gauge with the GPR on, and off isn't much different.

I know if i hit the key. i can hear the GRP relay kick.
And after about 2 mins I hear it kick off, but only if i'm standing in the engine bay.

It also sounds like my GPR relay kicks on and off while cranking.

I also hear the GPR relay kick, with the key on and the switch off, so we can suposse that with the switch we dont dissable the GPR relay and only the GPs? or what?. Im getting confussed.

Well, that not true.

As long as no power going to GPR, the relay can click all it wants.

No. I don't have it hooked up. I'm running out of places on dash for switches though! haha.
I decide to do video for all my new goodies for everyone.

People might think i'm annoying, but I'm all about sharing knowledge and what not!! I like to learn, I hope everyone here does too!

i still hear a click when i turn my key to on, but i had a small wire broken that i just fixed today and it still clicked. it was the small wire on the engine valley side of the GPR. i broke the terminal end off the wire. not sure what that wire does, but whatever that is it's not too important for my truck!!! LoL. did wayy too much electrical today.. speakers, GPR wire, alternator wire that still don't wanna work right.... LoL

Travis, you just having all sorts of problems arn't you?

Number 2 relay in the fuse box I believe is for the GPR.

I pulled it when I did my injectors. I didn't want to burn up wires.

i broke that little wire on the GPR when i was changing my HPOP gasket.. LoL. poor truck is about to turn 300,000 miles so its gonna have a few problems. as of right now though everything is good except that stupid big wire coming off the alternator going to the solenoid. it seems to have a bad connection. i will have to solder that connection or something...
