    Default Trim sensor install instructions

    Hi All,

    Looking for a little help. I got out the instructions for the trim sensor install to go over them, but it looks like they have gotten inadvertently thrown away. Does anyone else have a copy of these they would be able to share.

    Thanks for you help.

    This is the instruction sheet that came with mine, ordered about six months ago.

    I was hoping someone can confirm what's on each wire...

    Eric's attachment shows...

    Blu/Wht = Pin 1
    Org/Wht = Pin 3
    White = sweeper

    I'm assuming that translates to...

    Blue/Wht = 5V
    Org/Wht = Gnd
    White = position

    I just haven't been able to confirm this anywhere. Thanks

    Yeah, the factory instructions are pretty terrible but that's how I read it too.

    Thanks Eric, I went ahead and hooked it up like that and it is working fine.
