Yes John, one thing I had learned early on, is that if the shell is floating above the chassis, leaving even the smallest gap, a wire is going to get crushed when the screws are tightened down. Thanks Bruce, other then the connectors, I do have all those supplies and that is how MTH originally had this motor hooked up. I believe John's correct in saying pretest the motor then solder. On the wire routing issue, I tried to put a zip tie around the motor to hold the wires down flat, but the clearance is so tight, the shell wouldn't slip down over the motor. Electrical tape (3M) was what I had to use. I know the tape will age quickly and start to come off, leaving a sticky mess, especially if the motor gets hot, but what else is a guy to use?
