Santo,  Thank you, what you have is what I thought it should be but I don't
have another 2001-8 reference.  My PET has two red and four black wires.
Nothing fancy stock system otherwise.  I am trying to determine what the
extra wires are for.  It also possible that someone at some point switched
things around so I have to consult with the schematic.  The wiring could
explain why the 23000 uF 15v cap near the transformer has gone bad, but who
knows at this point.

Bill
