If the headlight doesn’t light when you connect the leads, you don’t have a short. <div><br></div><div>Peace, Pat. <br><br><div dir="ltr">Pat Horne <div>We support Habitat for Humanity</div><div><br></div></div><div dir="ltr"><br>On Oct 6, 2023, at 6:22 PM, john <jniolon@att.net> wrote:<br><br></div><div dir="ltr">
