90Q electrical issues

[Duncan Thomson]

Thanks Pat, I was leaning towards a connector plug, but got under there, 
and pressed/wiggled everything I could see with no luck. It's really 
tight in there, and difficult to see what's what, so thought I'd check 
with the list!

There has been some evidence of vermin, so I'm really hoping that's not 
gonna hurt me.

Thanks for the advice, and I will definitely report back!

Cheers
Duncan
