Answer

Naresh, You did order and install the correct infinite switch based on the model number you supplied and the left front infinite switch. When wiring the new switch, it is more important to use the terminal location chart than it is to use the wire color, as thats going to vary from model to model. So, the wire on terminal 2 or (L1) on the original switch attaches to the (L1) terminal of the new switch (Per figure 2 of instruction sheet #8203545) and so on. Contact the APP Customer Assistance Team 1-(877)-477-7278 and order a replacement switch, and check for a possible shorted or damaged wire in the mean time, and use the terminal chart not the wire color chart to wire the new switch. Good Luck and Thanks
