Remember Sean Penn, 2001, Sam I Am? He went full retard. Went home empty-handed.

He needed to be disarmed.

OK. Quick follow up. Looks like I was the one that went full retard, or at least partial retard.

I assumed the black wire was the ground on the 7443 socket. It's not, it's the low light. Green with yellow is the ground, which I should have known.

I should be able to rewire this afternoon.

No kidding, I keep getting annoyed about these color schemes in electrical wires, but it is a type of theft deterrent.
