Finding A Short

Found a good video on this. First one I've found that explains for someone with no elec knowledge (like me) can understand.

Wow, bravo. :clapping: Simply fantastic work, he is a true mechanic. Not just another parts replacer. I hope someday i am that good with electrical. :bowdown: I wonder what another less capable shop would have charged, i would bet my paycheck any other shop would never have found the problem.

Good video Jim. Troubleshooting electrical problems is not that difficult IF you have the correct electrical diagrams for your rig. This is the emphasis and major point of the video. W/o the correct factory electrical FSM, not a generic Chiltons, Hayes, or some other junk, you're really just guessing. You can get away with troubleshooting mechanical problems usually without an FSM, but not electrical stuff as there were subtle differences throughout every year you would never find w/o the correct electrical FSM.

The guy also has a website where you can order some of the tools he uses in the video, like the ammeter and the circuit breaker. He says he makes a small commission if you order thru his site.
