Is this a bad way to test a ground?
My turn signals flash quick on the right side. All bulbs fine. Would it be out of the question to gator clip the ground on the bulb socket to the chassis to ensure that I'm getting a proper ground, or am I risking blowing something up? Thanks!

Just clips, as in, a wire with clips on each end, one to the ground post on the buld harness, and the other to a known ground. I really just looking to see if there is a problem with the current ground, and want to make sure that the harness is grounding correctly. I do have a meter, also.

try with a meter first, in diode mode (or as I call it, Beep mode...)

What would be the proper steps to test a ground with a meter? Thanks.
