Bradstar, I can't disagree with anything you said.
I was thinking there were a lot of old DME's out there that would work (incorrect assumption) and both of my issue's could be attributed to an DME going bad. A used DME sounded like a good place to start.
The fact that the car starts just fine after the battery has been disconnected and then the next day it's back to not working is discouraging. It's like a "capacitor?" somewhere is shorting out. It works at first and then slowly drains. (Pardon my lack of electrical terminology. I'm definitely more mechanical than electrical). Everything I've tested and checked off may still be the problem if I checked it after recently connecting the battery. Would the relay by the DME possible work at first and then run down the longer it has power to it? |
