Recapped a 42-322. Part #43 was a multi-section 20, 20, 10 uF (red, yellow, green w/ black common wire) electrolytic cap. I wired the negative leads together as the black common and the positive leads to the red, yellow and green wires respectively. Did I get the polarity right?

Reason I ask is that I only measure -1vDC between the common lead and the point where I should see 100vDC. Rectifier tube filaments glowing (don't have a tube tester), field coil measures ~500ohms, dim bulb power up went OK. New 35Z3 on order but your thoughts on other next steps I should consider would be helpful.
Thanks!
Bob
