Electrical Short - Page 2

It would seem that it should not connect thru to the frame or else why bother with all the insulation they have packed in there. The book is pretty specific with pictures how the test should be run. I may reassemble it with the wasp nest cleaned out and let the "experts" test it again.

A response to Randy 41. I haven't tried that. Perhaps the resistance increases when the ignition is on, similar to a light bulb filament. It only generates high resistance when it's hot. I'll check that and let people know the outcome.
