First hello to every one. This is my first time posting on here (Novice). I am working on a 40-190 that someone started before the got over there head. I have one wire left and i can't find where it goes. I have added a picture of this Yellow wire and the print as well.

Your help is greatly appreciated,
Paul

Looks like terminal 5 on coil #18 methinks.

I have just started restoring a 40-180 and I believe they both have the same chassis. I won't be home until Monday so if you can wait that long I will verify the connection.

Hello Paul, I just checked the chassis of the 40-180 I'm working on and your yellow wire attaches to pin 5 of the 1232 tube just below the switch assy. Pin 5 is the internal shield of the tube and is wired to chassis ground. Look at the blue wire in the photo below. I used a pencil as a pointer.
