After replacing the accelerator magnets, only the left one works in the accelerator test; the centre and right do nothing.
Accelerator magnets dead after replacement: each uses different pins of its plug
Cause: Each magnet has a 3-pin plug with only two wires, and they use different pins: left uses pins 1 and 3, centre 1 and 2, right 2 and 3. New magnets come wired on pins 1 and 3, so the centre and right ones were not connected properly.
Checks
- Compare the pin positions in each magnet's plug with the matching plug on the harness.
Fix
- Move one pin in the centre and right magnets' plugs to match their harness connectors (1 and 2 for centre, 2 and 3 for right).
