Does this mean that the clips should only be connected to "positive?" When I attempted to attach the afore mentioned red clip to the front terminal of the horn, it honked as soon as the clip touched the terminal. Tried touching the red clip to the rear terminal and got a shower of sparks! What's happening here?
Alright all kidding aside,,.to answer those questions with an easy to understand explanation, I would have to see the instructions that came with the test light. There are so many different types of "test lights" available. Some have solid state electronics in them that indicate the level of voltage and some don't. Some are just "pass through" bulbs, some are not.
What is the brand and model of test light you have. I may be able to download the instructions for it and give you a crash course on what is going on, how to use them and how YOUR particular model works.
