I don't know what you were expecting, this mod only provides smoother torque and some provision against voltage drops. Sounds more like your VIAS to me (as seen in your other post).

How well did you prep the bound surfaces? Did you sand off all paint before bolting the terminals down? If you have a voltmeter, go back and check the lines; you should be seeing no more than a 0.5-ohm drop per line.

Where do I stick the probes?




But seriously though, where do I measure the resistance?

I didn't experience anything other than maybe a little smoother shifting. Did you sand everything etc... and put all the factory sensor grounds back, is everything tighten down??
