welcome to the QB. No idea! I hope some mechanical brain can help you out.

you need to include the motor to figure this out - since it goes in the middle of the plug and the foot control.

Basically you make a circle. One line from the Plug is going to go to the motor. one line to the controller. the other line from the controler goes to the motor. And in some cases, you'll have another set from the plug to the light -so it gets power seperate from the foot control.
Normally in a case like this - one of those pins isn't going to have a live connection inside the machine - while the other two go to the motor.

So one from the pedal goes to one from the motor - one from the plug goes to one from the motor - and the other two (one from pedal, one from plug) go together at the pin that does not have a run to the motor.

If you think that is fun - try wiring in a 4 way light circuit - three switches and a light fixture.

opps - since you know which one has one and two - you'll need to see if one inside the machine also goes to the light - and that would indicate which of the "singles" get the power (to the light) and which does not.

Hook it up one way, if you plug it in and the motor takes off - you have it the wrong way.

Joe,

If no one has changed anything the plug is wired: #1 has one power wire and one foot control wire, #2 has the other
power wire, and #3 has the other foot control wire.

The receptical on the machine is wired: #1 has one wire from the light, #2 has the other wire from the light and a wire from the motor, #3 has the other wire from the motor.

This is standard on White brand machines and White made Kenmores. Some times they are labeled BLK/ BLACK (#1), RED (#2), and WHITE(#3).
