Does the SPID (Service Parts Identification) label in the glovebox call out Option NL2?

The six position Weatherpak on the valve is lettered A-F. F should not have a wire so A is on the opposite end of the plug... easy to find.

With your Digital Volt Ohmmeter. What ohmage do you get when checking resistance between Valve plug A to ground & Valve plug C to ground. One of them should be 90Ω ish and the other should be somewhere around 29Ω ish... give or take a few Ω. The graph in my post above shows Ohms VS gauge position.

You may be correct about the rewiring, but this is the cleanest most unmolested old truck I have ever owned. It is a NL2 according to the window sticker. I'll ohm out the wires some time this weekend. Thanks again for all of your suggestions.
