    Replaced Connectors, almost ready to test

    I'm about done replacing some connectors and want to test them before putting the harness back on the bike. Is there an easy way to do this or will I have to just cross my fingers and hope for the best?

    Well, I'm not an expert, but I'm thinking if they're firmly attached and have near zero resistance from one end to the other, it should be good. Frankly, I've never done a resistance or continuity test after adding a connector. A good mechanical connection is very likely a good electrical connection if everything was clean to begin with. Shoot in some dielectric grease to protect it and call it good.

      Off the bike, continuity tests are your best test.
