OP 41delux Grease Monkey Joined: Sep 2016 Posts: 13 California	Just got this car a few months ago and was trying to get defroster rewired when I noticed the battery was installed with pos to ground and neg to starter, I know it's supposed to be neg ground, can I just switch back to original configuration with no issues? Everything seems to be working correctly. Thanks Last edited by 41delux; 09/17/16 07:03 PM.

To poloize, with the battery connected jump between the Gen. and Bat. terminal.....enought to just make a spark. I use the blade of a screw driver. If the ammeter reads backwards switch the wires on the back. Gene Schneider
