One wire should be brown, the other brown/white. (That's brown with a white stripe.) The brown, as always, is the ground. The other is shorted to ground when the switch detects a problem, and that turns the warning light on.
The new switch grounds through its threads. Tape the brown wire up and out of the way so it doesn't get tangled up on anything, plug the brown/white wire into the switch. If the wires really are not those colors, use an ohmmeter to find the ground wire. Should have zero resistance to ground. The other should have either infinite, or some non-zero amount of resistance. The one with zero resistance is the ground wire, tape that up. The other is the sender wire, plug that in. --DD |
