Re: Modwerx ripped me off...

Sorry for the thread jack, but just so I don't do the same thing with my 445 how do you short out the leads? Also, what else can I do to prevent ESD or electrical buildup?

touch the two driver wires together or place a screwdriver across them- ESD wrist straps connected to Earth Ground are a good start and there are work station mats and other precautions as well.

hope I have this correct

Many of us here, including me, have posted here many times of our "AW POOP" incidents. My last one was so obvious AFTER the fact that I just walked away and went to bed.
