Hi all,

The following photo shows the direction that my taco plate is installed. The indent goes in toward the sump. I have seen pictures of other plates where it is installed the other way (indent out). What is correct?


Thanks

Mike

You are missing the cover plate, it has a hump to cover the sensor.
When installed it could look like someone had sensor plate upside down.

Thanks. I knew something did not look right. Just found the cover. Now I need to get a new gasket for it. Ugh.
