While on this thread, I am sure someone can answer without me starting a new topic.  The heater wire inside the main door...is there a reason to reinstall this for home use?  I wasn't sure if it helped with anything indoors or if it was just designed for outside use (freezing, preventing frost etc).

Nope, no reason to install this for home use.  The wire was used to keep the slug rejector from freezing up outside.

The old heater resistor & it's wiring have no function on a hobby machine, you can leave it on the machine for the sake of originality, but I'd cut the wires off down were they joint the main harness & insulate them

OK, I had removed the heater from the slug rejector by collecture's recommendation...so that is done.  The main door heater wire doesn't need to be cut because it just plugged into the electrical box, so that I was just planning on not putting back in (unless someone had a good reason to!  biggrin)
