Excellent lazoh, I'll try that tonight after dinner. IIRC, somebody said not to hook the positive cable back up while the engine is running because you could fry something, so I'll just diconnect it and see what happens and then shut the engine off before I reconnect it. That is if the car doesn't die on me when I disconnect it.

BTW, If anyone dissagrees with what I'm doing, please speak up because I don't want to blow anything, lol. I'm going to do it in about an hour, so I'll check back here before and then post back with the results.
