Product Overview

Hard cold starts are not always bad glow plugs. If the plugs and wiring test correctly but no power reaches them while the control is held, the dash switch may be burned or mechanically worn.

This momentary control lets the operator energize the preheat circuit before cranking. It uses a 5/8-inch dash or firewall mount in the listed applications; verify the heavy-current terminals and mounting depth because a glow circuit draws far more current than a signal switch.

Model, production date, serial number, connector, dimensions, installed options, and previous repairs can affect fitment. Compare the original component and reference information before purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why does the switch or wiring become hot? A: Loose connections and excessive resistance create heat; repair damaged terminals before installing the new switch.

Q: Will this cure worn-out glow plugs? A: No. Test the plugs, bus bar, cables, and battery condition as part of the same diagnosis.

Q: How do I confirm this is the correct part? A: Match the tractor model, 393209R1 or 189158M91, mounting stem, terminal size, and momentary operating action.

Q: Is this supplied by the original equipment manufacturer? A: No. This is a new aftermarket item. Brand, model, and part numbers are used only to identify compatible applications.
