anyone every have there wait to start light come on there LBZ yet?

Mine comes on every morning, but if you blink you miss it. My eyes usually are not even open in the morning so I do not see it all that much....

Take care

Even in the winter the LLY and the LBZ's wait to start "squiggly symbol" only comes on for a few seconds. In the summer it is just a flash.

With the daytime temps in the 100's and overnight in the 70's the glow plug light never comes on.

wait to start = wait for Winter..

Haven't seen it since March.

Guess not,

:eek:

I see mine everyday the first time i start my truck. After that its never there. I still wait for a second before i start it anyhow for good measure

Every morning for me. Split second though.

Every morning here too but its off before the rest of the seat belt/Dash BS lights go off.

I haven't seen mine yet, I try to watch for it but its to fast!! One day I'll see the little guy, one day...

yep, every morning, but for a few seconds....

I see it when the temp is below 70 in the AM and only for a very short time.

Haven't seen it since March.

+1.. Lately I get in and crank it as soon as the key hits the ignition.. Now I get antsy waiting 15-30 seconds for our old 7.3 PSD's 'wait to start' light to go off -:t

i was wondering cuz i know most diesels you gotta let the glow plugs warm, this is my first diesel to, i prolly never see it cuz its always hot here

I always had to wait at least a few seconds with my 6.0, even if i jujst turned the truck off and needed to start it again i would still have to wait :rolleyes:

Yeah, and that's a walk in the park compared to 7.3's

Pricisely why i went the Duramax this time arround instead of the PSD or Cummins ;)

Nevr seen mine

My problem is that im so used to waiting for the light on my old 6.5 that i do it in everything, gas or diesel :D

Even in weather temp's -27f in canada i've only seen my light for a max of 20 seconds... thats says a lot for the Isuzu glow-plug system if that was the std wait time for my 6.0

Want a long wait.. try to start a 1999 cummins in -30* weather w/ out a block heater. I probably sat there for 2 mins waiting for the glow plug light to go out.

The funny part is when it finally did go out I turned the ignition and my fingers slipped..had to wait another 30+ second for the light to go out a second time! lol

Cant imagine what the people in the hotel thought when that cummins came to life in -30* weather at 4am

I've had my F350 walk a few feet in addition to the horrible noise of an RPM that's so low it almost doesn't register:eek:

it got the shakes huh?! that poor cummins was blowin white smoke and knocking so hard I was sure it was about to send a rod though the hood.

PowerJokes sound bad anyway, I cant imagine what its like in cold weather!

fianlly saw my wait to start light today for the first time

althought i havent drove my truck in 3 days cuz i was sick

when it is below 65 in the morning it comes on for about 1 second. Only had my truck 1 month today and drive it almost everyday. Maybe only seen the light 5 or 6 times since new. I had a remote start put on the truck and it has a 10 second delay to wait for the light. Plenty of time today but what about in 6 months?

My problem is that im so used to waiting for the light on my old 6.5 that i do it in everything, gas or diesel :D

i do the same thing in any gasser that i drive.... thats probly my only good habit

Ditto

Mine lights up for about 5 seconds each and every time. Even when it is 100 outside or if I just shut it down.

Ditto on the wait. Becomes second nature.

Mine is for less than a second for the first start of the day. After that, no more squiggly.

I just took ownership of mine Tuesday and have not seen the light at all. Benny
