1st Gen Intake Manifold Heater Operation And Diagnostics (Grid Heater)
The load is so high that the belt on the alternator is slipping and making a lot of noise..... that is why I started looking for something wrong.. maybe I should look at the belt area.... Thank you for your help
Sounds like maybe somebody at some point installed the wrong sensor. They are different between I/C vs. non-I/C. That is the only thing I can imagine that would explain such backwards behavior. I say this because the KSB is electrically opposite in the I/C vs. non-I/C (hot/off) and also activates through one of those sensors.
ok so in the diagram there is are two wires that go into the ECM:
orange/black
yellow/black
I dont have the ECM from a dodge I did an engine swap and am trying to get mine working. can i just hook the two wires i listed above to a switch the links to the battery. and then just have it switched manually? also will it shut off on its own once the grid heater heats up?
