Well, It is time to Re-Wire this old Aladdin QuadraFire

Hello

Picked up an old Contour that was dead as a door nail!

It has a 7.5 amp auto Blade Fuse in it, which seems very, very strange! Also the snap disc had tap on it. So I decided to throw in a new Harness before trying to get it going so I know all the connections are good!

The paper work is first. The new wires are not all the same color! Cannot go by the manual diagram!
The first 3 pics below are the Orig manual and wiring diagram.
Good thing it has a Life time guarantee! LOL
