Continuity .....installing DSM 450's....?
Ok after installing my DSM 450's and wiring up the resistor box, my car started up and idled fine...the next day I decided to get a continuity tester to just double check.
Now, is there a certain way I'm supposed to do this? Because I hooked one end onto one of the wires going to the resistor box and then tested each injector clip.....ever injector clip i tested lit the tester up?
It doesnt matter which wire I try to test...they all light the tester up?

If all the injector power wires are going to a red resistor wire and then all the injector grounds are together with the black wire off the box you're fine. Sorry I don't know anything about the test but... If you did it like this and it idles fine then you're fine.

Re: (D15B7turbo)
ON EG's theres a harness on the driver side, on EK's theyre on the IM. If you used a continuity tester/test light and grounded the clip and just stuck in the injector harness, of course it would light up, all you're checking is whether voltage is presence at that part of the circuit. Get an OHMmeter, stick one lead (Negative or positive in doesnt matter) in the injector clip and the other lead into the harness i'm talking about, whicheverone u get a reading on the harness is your injectorX on that harness... wait lemme dig up a pic
