Well, I decided to try to see if sitting overnight changed anything, and so I re-attached the wire in question to a spare breaker at CB30, and all was good & working. The silverleaf powered on and was receiving the data, everything seemed to work except I now have the ABS light on the dash lit up. I decided to see if all of the switches worked, and all did except when I clicked the interconnect a couple times the wire in question started drawing current and popped the spare breaker, ABS light still on, silverleaf until went dead. Wait ten or so seconds, ready with the current draw amp meter, and when the breaker reset it showed drawing 37 amps. Argh, what a pain in the arse! At this point I am going to abandon the project and wait until I can talk with a tech from BCS to see if they have any insight to this problem. The infrared thermometer is a good idea, but I am not sure I can get a reading as fast as the breaker pops, might give it a shot later.
Thanks again for the replies!
