    pull it out and test resistance betweern the pins (there 6 of them) the outer 4 are the + and the inner two are neg. so on the to row test one outer one to neg pin, then the other outer one to neg pin. do the same to the bottom row. should be about 0.3 i think but ill look on thursay when back at work
