as far as cutting the wire, they check for that too when they test it.... it the light doesnt come on in the start position then go out, they assume tampering and fail it....


you could rig up something on its own circuit to time delay it maybe only once as soon as its started.... but......

usually it's better just to fix it, instead of mask the problem


i found what i was talking about

:usa:

The cost of freedom is always high, but Americans have always paid it. And one path we shall never choose, and that is the path of surrender, or submission.

~ John F. Kennedy ~
