Tank switching valve issue solved

I posted a while back about this. Got stranded yesterday (close to home) because of it.
Found the problem. After installing a new switch in the dash, somebody forgot to reconnect the harness to the switch. Go figure......
Not feelin too bright.

D'oh! lol
Dont worry about it. At least you didnt intentionally do something dumb out of laziness.
I caused a lot of electrical gremlins on my trip to RRE out of not bothering to cleanup a contact for a ground...
