My Aux electrical hookup on my boom is pictured below. Other pic is from my owners manual. I only have 9 pins total. I was trying to find the Ground wire. With machine off or on. I have no continuity between chassis ground and any of the pins pictured. I do have a ground connection at the metal connector. Im and wondering if CAT uses the metal electrical connector as the ground? Or am i missing the ground PIN. I will most likely just add a pin to a open hole and run a wire to ground somewhere, or just ground the tool side metal connector. The adapter that I have has 5 wires, I now just need to find a home for the Black ground wire that i do not have in the picture.
Any help or knowledge would be appreciated. Thanks.
