If the directions say to use the purple wire, I would assume you'd use the solid purple wire seeing how the directions didnt say to use the purpl/blue wire etc., Make sure you dont cut the wires but use in-line wire splices and wrap 'em in some elec. tape. Good luck

I'm checking because you have to cut wire so BD controller can be spliced between to control tc.

OK, I'll play nice. Now that I had a chance to smarta** you I will make up for it. According to this post i found it is the purple/yellow wire that controls the T/C lockup. Hope this helps.

Hey, where did my pebble go??
