isn't there a black wire, or is it 2 black wires that go to the display unit T6 connector? But perhaps more to the point, there is also a black wire that runs to the lower, right stud on water tank that is part of the water level sensor system. alistair On 2013-04-15, at 1:21 PM, David Beierl wrote: > At 03:33 PM 4/15/2013, Bryan Feddish wrote: >> hmmmm, I was hoping it would be to my water pump somehow.
