Hello all, I am building a (for lack of a better term) "load stabilizer" for my vehicle, the final stages of which will require me to weld on a piece with a load attached for proper orientation. I will be using an AC buzzbox for this.
Am I going to run into any trouble with the welding current monkeying around with the car electronics? The vehicle has ECMs for both the engine and the transmission, and I would generally prefer not to destroy either of those two units.
I would be welding on one end, with the ground clamp between the weld area and the vehicle, so theoretically the welding current should travel from the rod to the weld and out the ground clamp (and back again), but I just wanted to hear from others who have done this to make sure it's kosher.
Thanks,
Jon
