Need to make a correction to instructions 200 1984

I think there was a bit of mis-communication on what your husband did to get out the spade connectors...so lets find out.

When the switch came apart in a couple of pieces, one was still stuck in the wiring plug, thingy. Did your husband pull out the individual male spade pieces from the wiring plug? If so, sheik's concerns are unwarranted. That's what I am guessing he did with the Leatherman. Button it all up and you will be good to go assuming you do not wish to attempt installing a relay that will remove this issue...which is a lot more involved (unlikely).

If that is not the case and the individual female connectors inside the plug were pried on (internally, making them grip the male pieces less tightly) to release the male spades, then Sheik's concern is very valid and we can go from there.
