I respectfully disagree. There’s still value in being able to visualize what someone has done. Benefits for both side, in this case I’d point out that your terminals are too exposed and likely to corrode. I agree that you need a fundamental understanding of the systems you’re wrenching on, but...
A lot of it is curiosity, seeing how other people build things, especially when it comes to something like the HMMWV that can be configured and modified into such different forms. Our M1123s are less than 1k SNs apart and look nothing alike now, words don’t convey those differences the same way...

What terminals did you use to attach the Packards to the relay? Did you use a waterproof relay socket and feed into them?
Again, there are dozens of things that you can learn from a picture that go beyond...
I understand how relays work. What I was looking for was where you tucked the wiring, how you deleted the second switch, whether it was removed completely or left in place and bypassed, whether it looked like it would survive being submerged, etc. Whether swiss wiring had an extra neutral to...
