Is this my electrical short ?

believe it or not, NAPA actually sells those sockets still. i have the part number jotted down at home that a lady looked up for me. it's in their catalog not online. i can get you the part number tonight, or you can call a local NAPA. they will have to look it up in the book.

i didnt need those, just reconditioned mine. but i was dumbfounded they even stocked the socket for my car lol. being it's a '74 plymouth

I took moparlovers advice, and order a exact replacement from Napa. On the way home I passed Autozone, and stopped in, and they had a GM socket for cheap on the shelf. I thought, " It's cheap enough as a test tool, until the replacement arrives. Well it actually will screw right into the back of the housing, and it comes with a really thick compressible foam gasket. I'll try this with some wire barrels for temp, and if it doesn't work, GTXman had some good advice for searching for shorts. Very cool thanks everybody. I'll post whether it gets fixed, or not.
