Any cable connectedfrom this laptop to the under-dash connector could have +12 volts put across itsground connectors. There are two conditions you must be cautious about. 1) Ifyou are powering the laptop from a DC power supply plugged into the vehicle,then the laptop ground could be held at a voltage above or below vehicle ground.2) If you are powering the laptop from a wall outlet and also have the vehicleon a battery charger, then the laptop ground could be held at a voltage above orbelow vehicle ground. If you are unsure about your laptop power supply, you MUSTmeasure whether there is any voltage on the laptop ground measured against thevehicle ground.Back toSend mail towith questions or comments about this web site.Copyright © 1999-2012 Last Modified:January 28, 2012.
