[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 606392, member: 3828"] Nice [COLOR=#2E8B57]Frank Z[/COLOR] reference. ;) That will only happen if you wire your farkle devices with both the frame connection [I]and[/I] a dedicated wire back to the negative. If you just use the frame (no wire) you don't run that chance. The problem is that all those various devices using the frame common (including the starter and alternator) cause a bunch of noise on the frame . So we often want to run a dedicated "ground wire" line back top the battery for that reason. In that case, just be sure to keep your device isolated from the frame. [edit] In retrospect, considering what I just wrote above, this may be what is happening to these "ground blocks". [/QUOTE]
