Connection Reference 2
Connecting the pigtail cord to the TankBuddy™:
1. The pigtail cord should be partially attached to the unit through the ground connection. With the
cover off, you should see an exposed red wire and black wire coming from the pigtail, on the end
that’s inside the unit. Connect the red wire to the left-most terminal, and the black wire to the
right-adjacent terminal.
2. Tighten the connections on the terminal block with a flathead screwdriver. MAKE SURE WIRES ARE
INSERTED ALL THE WAY IN THE TERMINAL, AND THAT THE SCREWS SECURING THE CONNECTION
ARE TIGHT AND SECURE. FAILURE TO DO THIS WILL CAUSE HEATER MALFUNCTION. Also, make
sure that the wire insulation is not inserted into the terminal block as this will inhibit good electrical
connection.
3. Replace the unit cover, screws, and control knob.
