I am trying to get a Harlem Globetrotters back online. I've purchased a new rectifier board and did not take good pictures so I am following the directions on http://www.pinwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Bally/Stern#How_To_Hook_Up_a_Bally_AS-2518-18_Rectifier_Board

My question, the website says the 18-gauge red wire comes from lug 5 and solders into E1, while the 18-gauge yellow from lug 1 solders into E2. However on my transformer I have the 18-gauge red on lug 1 and the yellow on 9.

Should I go with the colors (i.e. use the 18-gauge red no matter where it comes from,) or go with position (i.e. whatever color wire is in lug 1 goes to E2)?

I am guessing to go with color, since there isn't anything at all on lug 5 of the transformer, but this is so fraught with disaster I am hoping someone with some experience can help me out. Am I looking at the wrong website?
