1985 Scrambled Dash
The dash on my C4 will occasionally become scrambled. I was able to get a video of it when it was especially bad.

Just did that, it shows the same voltage that I've been seeing throughout the line.
That shows me 3.4 ohms from terminal to terminal measured at the prongs on top of the compressor.
