Thanks. What is a SHUNT? Something I can Buy?Should show something? It's late, tomorrow will check a couple vehicles like you have that hooked up.
Using a shunt many vehicles will show a small MA draw. Without it should show a large one...... provided the draw is still present.
Will get back in the morning.
Please tell or PM me. I am tired of this and would like to figure this out. Electrical is my weak side. Very weak!I have a solution but I'm probably getting ahead of myself.
It’s basically a permanent installation of what you’re doing but it goes on the positive side. (I think). It’s used to measure current draw. Common homeowner application would be in a camper so you can see what components use how much current draw. Like to calculate how long your batteries will last. A shunt I’m sure can measure small currents but it’s typically used for larger currents, but you can buy/size them for whatever. I could be wrong in my understanding but I don’t understand what the advantage would be for diagnosing a problem other than having a constantly visible readout until you fix the problem.Thanks.

Ok that’s perplexing! You’re doing it right.Ok, I get 0.00 still. I'm guessing this is going to be something I need to leave to experts. I know online help is really hard when
the people that are helping cant see whats in front of them. Im gonna try a different multimeter with the 10A setting and see if
I can get a draw.
