Default Ground Straps

Wanted to know if not having all my ground straps hooked up would cause the gauges to flicker then shut off? Then it just shuts off all power to car and power won't come back on for a couple of days. Car is 85 monte ss with a 5.3/4l60 and has vhx gauges.

Default Compass

YES, it can cause MANY problems, one such as to magnetize your engine.
This will cause the CS sensor NOT to be able to "read" the TW.

The BEST tool I have found to test for this, I found in a box of CrackerJack !

What is THAT tool ?

Default Your Prize ?

OK, sure your are correct, you won !

Just be fair, this question was for the help of the "poster"

What is your request ?

Be "honest" with your request, your wish might be filed ?
