I use a starter relay from a 66 ford bronco or equivalent. It has 2 posts
for the pilot circuit, so you can run a ground wire inside, to a pushbutton
switch and then to a ground. The hot side of the pilot circuit only has to
run a couple of feet to the battery. Connect the power to the battery side
of the resistance coil on the dash. This works on key-glow later models
when the switch or relay are intermittent. I used this on my 81 240D when
it had what turned out to be a series of bad starter relays. Just push the
button for glow or start, depending on how you wire it.
I had one on my escort diesel for the glow circuit too. It was flakey from
time to time.

All,
Is there a add-on part that would allow the GPs to stay lit while the
starter is turning on the 74 240D? If so, where might one obtain said device?
Thanks,
Bruce
