What do you think?

Based on this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufVuWznmJLA found this: Amazon.com: Power Probe ECT2000 Short Open Circuit Detector: Automotive

Seems to have good reviews and have a short also in the Squareback. Though expensive, so think it is worth the price?

It would be a bargain at twice the price.

Wish granted! http://www.amazon.com/Power-Probe-PPKIT03-Master-Test/dp/B003QHDLEQ/ref=sr_1_3?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1399326527&sr=1-3



There is even one three times the price.

Because of this I purchased one and have it now. Working great and like how easy it is to use.

Well, I do have an emergency fund and some wiggle room. Right now no horns, so if I can get those working again it could be another cost savings.

Because Scott is a little loud?

I feel worth the money considering safety, time, and lack of body-mind/motor skill.

I was thinking of putting it in the tool rental, but nervous...
