We all know the danger of making ASSumptions. Can you trace where those red and black wires go? Probably to the circuit breaker or power switch? From there they should go to the bridge rectifier (...

I got a call from Luci at Travers, she said they will ship one to the CA store, then I can pick it up, or...

Just got off the line with Travers, they still want $1600, plus it was 843 to ship it from the east coast to the west( with residential delivery and lift gate service), plus I have to pay CA sales...
