One has to be ground, then. Can you check for continuity to ground?

What's continuity? What tool do I need to buy now for it? And how do I check it?

When you check continuity, you are confirming there is a connection between two places. In this case, it is the unbroken and consistent connection between the start of a wire and the end of it. You can use a basic multimeter or voltmeter.

Take a look at the following link. You will be checking for a complete circuit with little to no resistance. It explains checking resistance using the ohms setting on a multimeter.

Let me know.

Electrical problems can be frustrating but please hang in there. Lets try replacing the perm LP relay in the behind the glove box relay panel. Here is the location. Check out the diagrams (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.

None of the posted diagrams say which one is the one behind the glove compartment.

And looking through all the diagrams, I don't see anything that says "PERM ID"?
