It would be interesting to analyze the failure mode. I assume the headlights could be operated by rectifying the signal with enough energy to operate the headlight relay, but that sounds pretty intense. Is there any logic in some automotive circuits that could be more sensitive? Most speedometers are magnetically coupled unless they are digital., yet it mentioned the dial swinging. I can't imagine radar affecting a typical speedometer. Bob
