/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gifNegatively speaking. Well has anybody ever expierenced negativity from mother earth? As the world turns, now I have expierenced the true events of the Negative Ground snake. As my electrical seemed not to work properly, I pondered, and started to seek out the problem. My question out there is this. Is there anyone out there that is aware of the fact that if the ground bolt is stripped on the transmission mount, then everything electrical in the british car goes haywire. Only by chance did I find the solution to this. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif
 
Oh, I Forgot to post the solution. The fix was this, I cut the bolt out with a saw, then drilled and tapped it for a bigger bolt to ge a secure ground. Then went through the entire vehicle to make sure all of my grounds were intacked and secure. Just remember that there are grounds UNDERNEATH the vehicle hence the old addage "out of site, out of mind"

If it ain't grounded, it ain't gonna work.
