THe best way to get your answer is go up to your local stereo shop that may have an ohm meter pay them a couple of bucks to put your resistiors together to get your the desired resistance. If you are not within .75ohms you will not get the effect you want

Adder is correct on the resistor connections. Two 150 ohms in parallel will give you 75 ohm load. Also if you use 1/4 watt resistors this would be the same as using a 1/2 watt resistor.

dammit...i hate soldering...this is supposed to kill the fault code right. not just eliminate CEL?.
IS there a way of knowing if meter is out of calibration?
