bought a new PP (Sierra 18-5885) and installed it. discovered that it only has 3 silver sleeves in the 5 prong connector and the one that it connects to has all 5 pins. talked to Sierra tech yesterday and he said it should have all 5 sleeves. called company i bought it from and they said they talked to sierra and it should only have 3.

went to the boat and found that the 2 black/yellow wires and the white/black stripe are the 3 that have sleeves. the tan and yellow/red are the 2 that don't have sleeves. could this be the cause for my no fire condition?

anyone who has any info on this part or info on the wiring of this part, it would be greatly appreciated to have before i send this one back or buy another one."
