Overview
This is a narrow, owner-made explainer on how the Bobcat CT5555's five-position ignition switch controls glow plug cycling, not a walkaround or buying guide. The owner explains manual vs auto glow plug modes, the water-temp-based auto relay, why re-cycling glow plugs burns them out, and then demonstrates timing an actual cold start (about 17 seconds at 25°F) in both modes. Best for current owners troubleshooting cold-start or glow plug habits, not shoppers.
