Ohmic check of the CPS is a waste of time unless you do it right - it is a Hall Effect switch which is basically a transistor that is turned on by the change in the flux field. You may get some info if you make all your measurements the repeat with reversed leads. This causes some "0" readings to go to open while other open leads will indicate a small current flow. The only reliable way to measure it is with a scope while it's under power, altho some better digital VOLTMETERS (not OHMETERS) have a fast enough response time to show whether it is actually pulsing or not. An older analog VOM will also work to check the voltage. -- Will Honea |

The third or fourth time of taking out the fuses, I spotted the burn in the 40 panel fuse. I should have known that the absence of any bells was wrong and I never tried windows, heater, radio, etc. I was too focused on the fact that the dash gauges/lights were working. It seems the thing is running better than before. I just wonder when the cause of the blown fuse will rear its ugly head again. Thanks, for all the help. Great stuff on the web site Doug, thanks.
