That's exactly what I'm telling you. You could also check it the same way on the 2 hot leads going to the box, the switched and unswitched power supplies. Place the voltmeter in series

...not looking for voltage drops (that's not what we're doing anyway), looking for MSD box power drains through the box's ground circuit(s). If everything's off ... no, you shouldn't read voltage.
