Installed manual push button but still have a problem

[galeo7171]

I installed all new glow plugs, bypassed the resistor, installed a manual push button by connecting to the blue wire and then grounding the button. When you push the button the wait light comes on but the relay doesn't click (new st85 relay). I turned the key to the on position and took a jumper wire and touched the small blue wire on the st85 to a ground and the relay clicks. I'm confused as to why the push button will turn the wait light on but not the relay. I checked the fuses under the dash and they are all ok. Any ideas?

I'm betting your button has ground, but not a good ground.

Move your push button to the other Blue wire on the GP control card.

Or wire it directly to the Light Blue wire on the GP relay.

Sounds like you are grounding the Dark Blue wire that goes to the Wait light.

You were right, I wasn't paying enough attention and had the dark blue wire hooked up. It's on the right blue wire now and the relay is working. The wait light doesn't work anymore though lol
