My tmaxx wont start the light on starter box for glow plug wont light up i changed glow plug got new starter box and wire harness and plug still wont glow wat could be wrong
 
if its turning over but the glow plug light isnt on then itSl likely the olug may be bad. also I've found that the glow plug wire thing sux your better off usimg a glow ignitor
 
The ignitor in the wands do tend to go bad. Alot of people just take the blue and yellow wires out of the picture and use a separate ignitor with the wand to keep the ez start option. I personally hate carrying the wand around and just went with a pullstart. Also make sure your yellow wire is grounded good to the block or chassis. If its not then that will be the reason the ignitor in wand doesn't work.
 
I used a new wand changed batteries turned it over with no plug case it was flooded new wire harness still nothing
 
I pulled the blue wire off glow plug as i was turning engine over i was tapping the end of the blue wire to plug and around plug somtimes the glow plug light will click on and off

You may want to buy a glow heater/igniter. Those EZ start system would be nice if the wires didnt get torn off or melt off all the time. The blue wire is the worst for that. I replaced those wires on my t maxx countless times.
