    Defender 300tdi Diff switch problem

    Being simple, I've put a meter across the 2 wires and theres a voltage going through at around 13.9v (when engine is running) am I right in saying that the earth wire is the wire that the red test lead is on when the meter is reading negative volts? cheers
