Hi, is it really an IH 2444? If glow plug resistor on the dash lights up instantly then your glow plugs are either wired wrong or there is. a short between resistor and first glow plug by the battery box. The glow plugs are supposed to be wired in series. It sounds like somehow they are wired in parrallel. The solid wires should be separated by an insulator on each glow plug. The wire from dash resistor should go to outside of first glow plug next to battery box, then there should be an insulator then sold wire closest to engine that goes to next glow plug next to engine then an insulator then solid wire to next glow plug and the wiring pattern is repeated. Do Not put 12V on the glow plug or they will burn out instantly. When everything is connected properly there should be about 6V to ground at the wire that connects to first glow plug from the dash resistor.
There is a kit that can be purchased to replace the old glow plug with new 12V ones from Mercedez. Tomorrow evening I will post link to archives with the new setup.

We have already talked about some of the colors the unit might leave as clues to its well-being. Now we are going to use our noses to diagnose particular smells. ELECTRICAL SMELLS
