Make sure you've electrically isolated the DUT from the others, the easiest way with a parallel relay is just to unplug the GP connector at the relay. In fact, if you perform the test at the connector you also test out the wiring to the plug. The relay shorts them all together at all times, so if you don't unplug it you're just testing all the plugs in parallel. With a hack job to a series relay, breaking the connections is up to you to do in the best way. That may be just disconnecting each plug from the wiring in turn. That's harder! -- Jim _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
