I can see how that would be an issue.

Of course, I don't think much of the dodge electrical philosophy in any event. Switches controlling the GROUND side of the circuit? Really??? What were they thinking? WERE they thinking??

The main problem I find with the Dodge electrical system is undersizing. They use too small of wires in many instances, or you could say barely enough. And lack of good grounds.

Controlling the GROUND side of the circuit, haha it's dumb. Even the PCM switches often times GROUND a circuit rather than CHARGE it.

Some people claim it's a remnant from the days of positive ground vehicles. Could be, but IDK.

I'll post up when I get to the wiring, show how wiring is done the RIGHT way
