Maybe post in the Behmor section. Behmor users can see it. The SHOUTBOX post will be hidden in a few days.

First Bread Machine roaster, but it's running backwards

I read several threads and thought I had it all figured out. When I roasted my first batch in the bread machine, I noticed that the paddle was running in reverse, going backwards compared to how it should run. This causes the pan to come loose while roasting which is less than ideal. I have attached a photo of my wiring with hopefully convenient labeling of wires. Do I simply need to swap Motor Red (MR) and Motor White (MW) to get it to run clockwise / the correct way? https://imgur.com...
