If that is of any help to anybody In this context, 350k is far from an open circuit. The sender is fed 12v through a one-megohm resistor, at least on the earlier arrangement -- and the evidence to date indicates that they didn't change the LED panel for the new sender. The LED panel senses voltage and has an input impedance that could easily be ten megohms. In stock form it should light green if it sees btw 0 and 3 volts, Yellow from 3 to 5, Red from 5 to 7, and no lights above 7 volts. Again, I'm speaking of the '84 version and we have not yet established for certain that the later ones are identical. Occam thinks they are, though. david David Beierl - dbeierl@ibm.net
