I just changed the RR on my 150. I was supplied with a DSI aftermarket RR instead of an OEM RR. My question is the Factory RR had a Yellow wire and a Yellow Wire with a Grey stripe. The DSI aftermarket RR has two Yellow wires. The instructions did not mention anything to be concerned about. They did say to check the voltage at both Yellow leads to ensure that the voltage is the same. The Voltage is the same. Should I be concerned about the two Yellow wires being hooked up on in reverse? I look forward to a response.

The yellow wires carry AC current and it does not matter which is which.
