VS is still ok. Neg to pos.

But grounding seems that cannot connect straight to negative. I rem seeing some fuse at the negative terminal. Maybe we should connect before there as the sensor may be inside there.

I got my Pivot frm Goodspeed, does this mean I'm affected?

Summarized the article from Pivot.

All grounding that directly connect to the battery's neg terminal will be affected. ie. spark bridge, ignition earth, any other form of grounding.

Volt stab seems not affected. (At least for Pivot's one)
