Cruise control wiring question... 200 1986

I incorrectly pulled the wires out of the valve unit of the cruise control unit I got from the salvage yard and now I need to know whether I would screw things up if my wires are crossed.

basically there are three wires going into the "underhood" segment of the cruise control valve unit Y-R, Y-BN and W-R, I am certain I have the W-R correct (it is common to both valves, but I'm not sure which valve Y-R goes to and which valve Y-BN goes to.

so I was wondering if anyone knows whether or not I would cook the brains of my cruise control unit by supplying power to it with those two wires reversed?

3517400 is the number of the cruise "computer" unit I have and it came out of an '86 245...

since the wires go to supplying vacuum valves I can't see that their reversal would do anything other than cause the cruise control's function to be messed up..

anyone have any idea?... thanks,

jack
