Or if it pops up with lots of other codes. I had one throw about ten
other codes, checked all sorts of thing and one of the last things I did
was pull my test meters power leads off the battery... wouldn't ya know
it, the batteries ground connection popped right off. DOH!

Never heard of a 1 AMP load resistor before. 1 OHM, yes.

No disagreement there.

No such problem, in my case. Code 12 does not just
spontaneously appear on my vehicle. Its recent appearance
was due to spray-cleaning the air horn, which caused storage
of a couple misfire codes. I've cleared those, and Code 12
will, as it always has, go away and stay away ('til next
provocation) when it's darn good and ready. Whether that
comes sooner or later it definitely won't be related to the
"50 key-on cycles" claimed in the service manual.
