hi David and Dean... the lost of ground at the thermostat housing is still a mystery to me. My other 2 syncros doesn't have that problem and it doesn't mean they won't.. a lesson learn as for any electrical problem on our old vans.. *first chasing the ground before doing anything*. This is my first electrical problem to solve besides changing light bulbs, ignition switch and headlight switch as preventive service.. David, I would think there's no ground between the thermostat housing and the engine... if it's so then I will add a flat braided copper ground to the housing... thanks again dan |
