Hi Dick,

>I'm measuring at the battery. O.P was what those readings were.
"O.P." Huh? Translation please.

>All I've got is a Chilton.
UGH! What you want is the Volvo wiring diagram for your model year
There's websites with various manuals in PDF format and you can find
hard copies at Ebay, they come and go daily. It did take me over a year to
find my 1993 940 book.

I have the 1985 book: TP30808-1 and it indicates that there's a ground wire
from the drivers side taillight to a ground screw in the body down low
towards the center maybe a foot or so. Lift up the hatch to find it.
You don't have to mess with the tailgate hinges.

>I'll PM you the address.
"PM" Huh again- good luck with dead Brickboard email.

I found my notes for that Auxito red 1157:
It operates at 1/4th the current, about 1/2 amp instead of 2 Amps
gives out 4X red light
Besides not toasting the lamp socket there's another a benefit.
I just smashed my taillight over the brake light and drove around for a week while the new taillight was in the mail.
No cops pulled me over for a yellowish brake/tail light.

TTFN, Bill
