I ended up messing around with the smoke tank -6 line and fittings for a bit trying to figure out why they are so difficult to get the ends in the line(I am a bit obsessed with it because though it isn't a piece of cake to do....it shouldn't be as crummy as it is either!). I took the fitting that got ruined and using a file I filed about a 1/4 inch bevel as a lead in....still wasn't an easy task. I abandoned playing with the fittings for the night and went on to more productive things. New fittings will be in Friday.
I turned to the right console and dressed, labeled, and connected the terminals for the Starter Switch.
