On putting my FT back together, I labeled all connectors on wiring before i took it apart.
I have a problem with J117, On the board it has 4 pins and the multiplug only has 3. Well 4 but ones blanked off. see pics. Now I may have tagged this up wrong but doubt it. And I cant see any other place for it to go.

Next is Start button. I can for the life of me figure out how it goes back together. How does the bulb and switch fasten to the button?
Thanks Lee.

Def worth double checking, it is possible on Fish Tales to get connectors wrong with cap blowing consequences 🤦‍♀️

 
Switch just pushes into the button, should click into place and stay in when it's in properly.
 
Look on page 3-32 of yr manual. It gives wire colours of plugs. Just copied this out mine.
I have no pin in position 1 on J117 Ken04CFA03B-4916-4435-B5CA-191B4B74BE40.jpeg

J116 and J117 are the same - maybe you swapped the two and J117 got replaced at some point without taking the pin off (which you should do…).

Ive looked at J116 and it has had a pin cut off on the right side. I vaguly remember seeing a bent pin when i took it apart and straightened it, not sure if it was this one or not.
 
Think both J116 and J117 are populated, maybe one is missing the key?
