Scott Mockry has postulated that 4 ohms is the absolute upper limit
for the entire circuit ECU-switch-ECU for the WoT switch.  My own
experiments support
this.  I wouldn't be surprised to find the same applied for the idle
switch.  ISV current measurement with the connector pins shorted out
compared with the current from a closed switch would show you.

A new switch.
