3. At this point, if you have installed the Stereo upgrade, please move on to “SETTING UP STEREO

CONFIGURATION” on page 51 and then return to step 4 below. If you have not installed the
Stereo upgrade, please continue on to step 4 now.

4. Attach the ribbon cable to the main board header. Remember earlier when you noted the pattern

on the cable wire near the dot on the sensor board? It is important that the pin by the dot on the
sensor board is attached to the pin by the dot on the main board. Make sure it is not reversed.

5. Slide the main board chassis into the VP Jr chassis and screw it in place with the short screws.

That’s it! You are almost ready to go. Skip down to “CALIBRATING THE VPM-1” on page 53.
