urns out one of them was a single brown ground. he other was a pair of
wires; one brown and small, the other a little bigger and RED & GREY. his
was disconnected from the spade connection during my motor swap and I was
leary to connect it to anything until I had figured out were it went. Silly
me, I thought it might be a powered wire being partly red and all. 

Chalk a win for why it helps to get the base level stuff done by a trusted
shop, leaves me with more configence to take it from there and run with it.
