I would like to verify correct operation of the seat sensors in my 74. Sensors show a resistance change from open to MegaOhms when sat upon, but I feel they should go much lower. Anyone ever measure resistance with your buttocks on the seat?

Just measured mine, I get .5 ohms on one seat 1.4 ohms on the other. Should have very little resistance.

Thanks, that's what I was expecting. Just wanted to make sure before having to try to source these!
