Changed out the original battery tonite on my 2009 GC 2410. I had added a glow indicator light , from a thread I found , but when I was replacing battery I sparked the positive term with the wrench. Everything works except the glow plug light, now. I tested the light separately and it does work. Tractor starts and all lights work. Just can't figure out, what happen. I checked all fuses, they are good. Could it of shorted out the glow plug position on the ignition switch. .?
Thanks
Todd

I've seen wrenches short the positive terminal to ground happen a lot, and it's never damaged anything on the vehicle.

The glow plug power rail is either hot when you hold the ignition switch to the glow position, or it's not.

If it's hot, and the glow plug light wire is attached to that rail, your problem is either the bulb, the wire running to the glow plug rail, for the bulb, or the ground. That's all it could be.

Did your glow indicator light work before you changed the battery?
