Thanks very much Jerry VB. I should be able to follow this procedure Thanks for the info Gareth!!

Thanks for the info! I guess I better have an electrician take a look at things HI Jerry, Thanks so much for the step by step, and yes; those are the. parts I bought!! I know I am being cheap, but I may have to sell the boat :( :(, and I have other more expensive mandatory repairs. Thanks again.
