Sorry for the basic question, but I was un-aware the Stepper outputs could even pull a ground?

I thought when you invert the output, it changed OFF to ON, and vise versa??? Am I nutty?

Beats me.  I just do what smarter guys tell me to do.
Audi ABZ 4.2 V8 in 1993 90 quattro
TTV 60-2 flywheel and cam sync
firmware: 1.2.20

Smurf blue (BMW Laguna Seca), hence the name!

Stepper chips output consist from two opposite transistors: NPN and PNP. So it can pull to Ubatt and also to ground.
