I repaired one 6 months ago , starter wouldn't crank and it looked as though glow was in the same box behind the passengers side front wheel guess 400mm in front of the battery.
this carried gardening supplies and the lot was rotten, poor connections to the start relay and fuseholder if yours is too or the terminal terminals or loom connectors to the relays or fuseholders and a wee squeeze aint going to do it as its gotten soft and intermittent, pick a warm day or use a hair dryer for twenty minutes to soften things up and get it in the mood for coming apart without shattering.
then you can get at the back of it and see whats going on.
run a similar size wire from the starter motor battery connection via a what ever fuse say 40 A say as yours might be 24v, If you haven't got a 50 amp holder [ I dont use a gold sub woofer holder] buy a bag of 10 of the 3mm wire size water resistant with rubber boots over a blade fuse [ I like the red ones] from ashdown ingrams in aussie or your local auto sparky grab say 4 and join them in paralell and put say a 10 Amp fuse in each one and theres your 40 Amp low loss fuse, hook one end of four fuses to the starterthe other to the heavy wire going to the glow relay. I's put and put the relay in a small tupperware container with a hold drilled in the bottom and join up the glow wire and extend the two thin ones in the rotten box to switch the relay and your in business.
