Hi Jim, well i kind of screwed things up a little bit, i took the mech out of the cabinet and was testing that plug, well with the multimeter probes, you know the gold contacts inside the plug that are on the bottom i pushed the golden contact through the bottom of the plug accidentally and it dissapeared through the bottom of the connector.
Also with that the other plug that plugs into the cabinet, there is one very lose contact that i didnt notice before and that looks like it will nearly fall out moves quite a bit
So i well and truly made life a lot harder with that machine, there are shorts that were not there before as well sigh
I am not sure what the next move is now i actually wonder if i should replace both the plugs, just a thought but i dont think i would be to good at that anyway as there is soldering and so forth, maybe i have to just suffer the cost and get an electrician as you see i am not to good at it and sometimes am not careful and rush things
talk soon
cheers
