minus-squareSzethFriendOfNimi@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up40·edit-218 hours agoOne suggestion. Some of the terminals are wrapped counter clockwise to the screw. You want them to be looped in such a way that when the screw is tightened the loop is pulled into the screw instead of being pushed away from it. You can see the way it’s wired here. Each one relative to the screw. https://youtu.be/QuR6_i27WcI?t=20m20s

(they also did some really FUBAR things too 😆)
