How about a wire Color, or Year model. This is why the Newbie section is here, you would have been flamed badly in the main forum.

When posting a thread, make sure to include all the info to help the people that are trying to help you.

Did they apply battery voltage to the ground for a continuity test? I recommend they get a multimeter with continuity function. Sorry to hear this.
