Art,


I agree with you. Ein Schritt out of seben. One foot in front of the other, Repeat.

R,
What are your feelings right now? I would like to know about why the relay is buzzing too! Was the fuse blown?

Remember, you've got to have a difference of 12v across the relay terminals 85 and 86 to keep it from buzzing and start the car. Otherwise you are stuck in the driveway.
