Well with the car off, no current should be moving between the two batteries right? There are 2amps and being measured across the relay. As well as between any one battery and the ground. So what should I be testing? You seem to be indicating that I should just be checking the quality of the ground? It's sound. It's where the volts appear to be going. -Craig On Sat, Jul 16, 2011 at 8:32 PM, mark drillock <mdrillock@cox.net> wrote: > Sure but for measuring what you think is a problem you need to put the > meter between 85 and ground as the only connection between those points > during the test. > > Mark > > craig cowan wrote: > >> Pin 85 goes to ground.
