GRJ, I had thought of all those wires on top of the diodes. I'm not crazy about that idea either. I will try to trace out the circuit. It isn't going to be easy to solder to the motor leads as the first motor already has two wires on the tab. I couldn't get the wires through the tab like the factory did so I just soldered them on top of the tab.
RJR, I already opened up the frame with a Dremel. The problem is because of the piece of metal that supports the connector is on an angle the diodes still hit it.
Thanks for your help guys. I appreciate it.
