Hi guys,

Some of you have already made mention of the MM trannies having different color codes than the Heyboers along with different markings. Not being an electrical genious (terminology wise, I need pics and diagrams, lol) I wanted to confirm the connections. I will compare the colors in the description. My trannie is a MM #MP100-68. I am using standard dual throw switches, not the 12xxx dual volt switch. Hopefully I am right and the attachment points are correct. Just looking for a thumbs up. Thanks in advance.

Red is 120v to the ON switch
Orange is common to the fuse holder
Blue and grey are 165v and are twisted and connected to the Stand BY switch (Metro is 178v)
Yellow B+ 0volt goes to the main board + side of first 100uf cap (Metro is labeled CT)
White bias goes to 27k bias dropping resistor (Metro is Blue)
Green bias goes to trannie bracket ground (Metro is Blue)
(2)Black wires go to filament 6.3v on EL34 tube socket (where light is attached) (Metro is GRN/GRN)
Green/Black goes to ground on V3 socket (Metro is GRN/Yellow Labeled CT)
