As far as the rewire job goes here is a before pic.
I numbered 5 items that needed attention here, all these things have been like this for years as done by the B&R 30 to 40 years ago and are now failing.
#1- is an uninsulated connection that is arcing to the bad insulation on #5 ( that is now striped back )
#2- Bad insulation on a wire that has been squashed between the #3 and 4 contactor that needs to be repaired and relocated
#3- is a unused connection that is not connected to it's terminal and needs to be removed
#4- needs new wire run to the bottom of the contactor and new insulation
#5- same as #4
No wonder that this unit shutdown on us a few times this year.
Here is the after.
