Well I did this and all the wire combinations that passed the continuity
test have all the same resistance. What I have found out is that there
are two sets of red wires, one with a white tracer on it, and a black
wire that mate up. The other set is two green wires, one with a whit
tracer on it, and a white wire that mate up. But as far as ohms go, they
all seem to have the same, so finding the center tap is difficult. Any
other suggestions Jon?
