Video - Finding Ground Problems

[Jim Becker]

Here is a good video on how to isolate electrical ground problems.

Good video. When he asked the first question about 8V between neg post and chassis, my first thought was that it must be an old Dodge
Thanks for posting, Jim!

Good vid, thanks Jim

Very good lesson.

For those electrically challenged, I could see some confusion when applied to a Cub with positive ground...perhaps someone could explain any differences in testing?

thanks,Tim

. . . perhaps someone could explain any differences in testing?

Change all his positives to negatives, negatives to positives, blacks to reds, reds to blacks.

Most digital multi-meters will show a negative voltage reading if the meter's leads are reversed for the battery polarity. No harm, no big deal, the reading will be the same when you reverse the leads and test again, showing a positive voltage.

Thanks for posting this video, Jim. Very helpful.
