1) the connections on the sliders are a bit delicate, so we need to protect them by strain relieving the yellow wires. first glue the yellow wires down near the slider.

2) then solder the yellow wires to the pins on the slider. my slider was rather confusingly marked, testing with my multimeter showed that i should connect to the two pins marked "1".

3) glue an 8-position terminal block to the back of the control panel

4) connect the remaining 8 wires - LED plus and minus, input power plus and minus - to one side of the terminal block. (all the remaining green, white, red and black wires)
