Glad you found it  :bigthumb:
The plug is unique so it should not plug in at all inverted  :thinking:

Said he replaced everything. Maybe an aftermarket BH connector? Don't know if they exist though.

You are correct. Not sure how I did it, but the I managed to jam it on there.
Luckily no damage to the BH/connector and I'm all good with full power and lights.

I have a friend that did the same thing, I went over and found he did plug it in upside down. took me a little while to find it. funny thing is it did make contact with the terminals.  :headbang:

I seriously spent two days; couple of hrs here and there just checking and re checking grounds, connections to the gauges, cehcking the FSM wiring diagrams and asking here on the forum. Was SOOOOOO glad to get it squared away. Guess it wouldn't be a hobby if it was always easy!
