Actually you want to remove them entirely. You dont want stray voltage causing problems for you. If you use a continuity meter, one that read ohms, if the wires are good, the meter will ring or say 0 ohms or a "short" if you will. The meter will dupply the voltage for the loop.

Well Larry, what I can tell you, is what you see on the outside you can also see on the inside.
