Does anyone know what happens w/ a 451M when you put ground on the red wire and 12V on the green (and/or blue) wire? Is it a straight short-circuit? Do relays click?

I'm assuming it'll short-circuit, so if you're testing this out, use a fuse...

Hoping someone has one handy, 'cause I don't,

why would you ground the red wire when it has 12volt (+) constant?

Because I have a lot of 451Ms, a shortage of normal relays, and am trying to get creative. :)

Just think of the red wire as pin 86 of both internal relays.
