[QUOTE="Arisley, post: 1499360, member: 67"] Voltage should be closer to 14 VDC. Turn the key on, watch the volt meter, not the wait to start light. When the relay opens, you will see the volts come back up. Cycle the key again and the relay will close again. If your batteries are a little bit tired, running the glow plugs, firing the injectors (powering the IDM) and turning over the starter makes it a lot harder to start these engines. I once had a problem with my truck. Batteries were tired, bought new ones. Had 14.7 volts at the batteries. Only 12 and the GPR. Ended up having to replace the positive battery cable. You can special order it from O'Reilly's, you have to find a guy there sharp enough to look at the books instead of the computer. [/QUOTE]
