I'll definitely keep that in mind for future debugging. Thanks. Are you confirming you think that would give the symptoms I mentioned? Thanks for reading the story there.

BTW, due to other problems and distractions in my life, the car has been sitting in my driveway for a couple of years now, just driven around the block periodically, which it does very well other than some weird electrical issues with the lights being on when they should not (headlights, brake lights, lots of them), even with the key out. I make that a non-issue for now with my convenient battery switch disconnect - otherwise it would drain the battery, set off the alarm, etc.
