Ah, makes more sense. That would be surprising, right? Maybe I'm misunderstanding. It can fire up and crank off its own power but can't diagnose whether or not the DME is there unless plugged in?


Also, maybe I'm just an idiot, or the search feature is terrible on this forum, but can you link to the post you're talking about with images on how to increase the drag on the sockets?



P.S.
Seriously though, I can search for things but it goes to a forum thread but does NOT jump to the page that references what I searched? Is there a way to search individual posts?


P.P.S.
Edit: Figured out how to search for posts. Didn't find anything with "egs signal" in it. Might still be an idiot.
