That's what I was thinking, and I pulled the rear plastic to check the
connections, thinking that something might have happened.  Everything
looked fine, like new in fact.

Good thought, I'll try that.  Don't need to buy it, as I have plenty
here at work

Didn't seem too bad to me, its the connector right by the fuel quick
disconnects, right?

I'm hoping its not either one of these (I'm pretty sure the connector's
fine), but if I can't get it to work it will go to the dealer for
warrantee repair on Apr. 28.
