O.L is not the same as infinate ohms? if im supposed to have infinate and my reading drops to O.L , doesnt that mean i have an open inside the potentiometer?

Posted by molurch 450 days and 19 hours ago.

Answer

If you are refering to Throttle Valve Switch:
Be sure the meter is set to Ohms
Check with plug disconnected from Throttle Valve switch.
If there was a short to ground or another pin, then the meter should show a reading other than " 0 "
