Last items on my list. Part of my [problem stems from a long latency betwee=
n when it was apart and now. I do remember that when I replaced the old dash=
that when I removed a gauge I put the wires back on in the same place so th=
at when I put the new wood in everything, I thought, went back in the same l=
ocation and terminal.
