Ok folks, I've done it again.
I finally got around to starting the rheostat on the Clydesdale.
Well, I'm not even 40 and I got side-tracked on the project by a few months.
I had undone ALL the wires because when I took it out, I noticed that the power cord was rubbed in 2 spots. I decided for my sanity to replace the power cord. While I normally take pictures of my projects ...this time I forgot. I'm turning to the board for help/sanity.
The Hearthstone pics in the manual are helpless. The U tube vid doesn't show much either.
Does anyone have a schematic or better diagram for the 2 blower set up?
Each Motor has 2 Black Wires with Male Terminals
Motor 1 has female terminals on each Black Wire. I assumed that Motor 2 "feeds" off of Motor 1.
I noticed that each wire is marked with a 0 and a 1 (polarity?) so therefore I am following that idea.
This leaves me with the 2 female terminals on Motor #1.
Was really hoping someone might have taken pics when they did theirs..or just has a GREAT memory..Thanks,

This leaves me with the 2 female terminals on Motor #1..I'm not a master electrician..always followed black to black etc...not sure if both black wires are polarity or not on the motors?..just didn't want to "experiment"

could someone confirm for me that this would be correct?
I found this COLOR image!!! online and it seems to jog the memory

black from power cord to temp sensor
