I don't think your readings indicate a problem. There are lots of good
reasons why you would not see a reading of infinite. Move on to some
real problems if you have any.

I also spliced in above the door to connect power and ground over to the passenger visor light. Even added an extra wire to power a 12v outlet up over the front of the slider for string lights when camping or top bunk access. Haven't figured out where to take power from for that, but I digress...

I expected to see a reading of infinite. The batteries are disconnected.

Haven't tested behind the radio to the cig lighter, but I guess there could be a short that way somewhere? l only replaced the wires on the dome circuit side of the connector where the red and black wires connect to the red and green/white  (T2c Bentley 97.210 and .215).
