Re: [DML] Relay wire question???

["DMC Joe" <dmcjoe@xxxx>]

All wires colored black in the electrical system are grounds. The melted
ground wire you mentioned is the result of a dead short across an un-fused
circuit. Open grounds in the electrical system can cause some circuits to
malfunction or not work at all.

NOTICE: We will be in Cleveland OH for the big DeLorean 2000 show June 12
through the 21st. Please hold all messages until after the 21st. Thanks

"We're here to help you"; See you in Cleveland!
