I am in NC. Crossed the border and gas prices went up $0.26/gal. And
all kinds of signs warning of impending doom for doing stuff that is
natural and normal. And here in Chapel Hill every other car is
plastered with ObamaBiden stickers. Piouses have more stickers for
Equality and Diversity and Coexist and rainbows and everything else.
Yesterday I creeped in a 20mi traffic jam on I-40, normal afternoon. I
presume they would pull me over for any infraction just to get more
money to support the socialist paradise.
BTW on your license plate deal you need to clean all the contacts with
some fine sandpaper, see if that helps. That aluminum or whatever they
use gets all goobered up with AlO and won't conduct electrons.

SWMBO got pulled over for no license plate lights on the 87 300D.
Bulbs are good. 0 volts between the contacts. Fuses good. ~12
volts from the "hot" license plate light terminal to the body inside
the trunk (but not the lid.)
So it appears there is a fault in the circuit to ground. Anyone
BTDT? It looks like I can strip the wiring up by the left speaker
and ground it to the body there without disrupting a lot. Is there
a better place under the mats to check for ground? The car is not
rusty. TX car.

Do you folks south of the border have day time running lights yet?
The gendarmes have been pulling folks over here if the day time
running lights are out. A $300 ticket. Not really something that one
would think to check on regularly.
