HST 2615 Glow Plug light stays on

optimist · Dec 15, 2011

Sometimes it goes out 'normally', but then it may come back on constant or flash like it's got a short. I'm guessing the relay (but that's just a guess). I don't know where it is though...any other things I should check or a pointer to where the relay is would be great.

Thanks

The timer/relay is located under the black cover below the steering wheel, on the left side.

Ah, so the timer and relay is in one piece. That the thing labeled "NGK OGS Controller", model # S85NE? Are those still available or is this where the conversion kit is needed?

Those are now obsolete. I just changed mine today to the new 10 second timer with different glow plugs than work with the 3 second timer. It was a very easy fix, just expensive, $200.00

Be sure to blow all of the crud away from plugs before removing. One member with another brand tractor had a temporary problem when a piece of debris got into the glow plug hole.

Witch one replaced the S85NE
