As detailed in another thread, the engine-side drive shaft boot on my BX1870 self destructed, and in flailing about it severed the wires to the fuel pump. I'm going to splice/solder new wire in, but I'm a little confused.
While the wiring diagram shows one black and one yellow/red lead going to the pump, I've got one black and two yellow/red (see attachment below). Am I safe in assuming it doesn't matter which yellow/red connects with which across the break?
Probably needless to say, but I'm an idiot when it comes to anything electrical, and it doesn't bother me if anyone reminds me of that fact, so clue me in! I'm assuming this yellow/red is the positive lead and that it makes a stop at the fuel pump while continuing its way to other components that are always on when the key is turned. But I can't figure out if the order of the connections is meaningful, except that presumably not or the two wires wouldn't be the same color scheme.
Thanks!
