Grid heater ground?

**Cummins97** · #1 12-01-2008, 01:53 AM

Where would I locate one of these little wires? For some reason mines gone. I've always wondered why they never worked.

Could I just use a battery cable to make one or that to heavy gauge?

Are you talking about the wires that run from the drivers side battery?? -

"I think" it hooks to the bottom nut on the back of the heater and to the intake horn bolt. -

Ok, I thought you were talking about the 2 fusible links that go from the drivers side battery to the relays on the fenderwell. -

That's the + supply. The grid heater grounds through the 4 bolts and the manifold. The gaskets are metallic with a metallic coating for a better ground. -

So this wire does hook to the intake horn right? and the heater wont work with out it right?

Sorry not much on the electrical stuff... -

It runs to a relay either on the drivers side or passenger side. Be two small wires on top and a cable coming off the battery to a large post. -

You lost me.

I'm talking about the approx. 5" long wire thats shown in the pic hooked to the back of the heater. It hooks to the intake horn. Right? -
