Thanks for the quick reply.

Here is the ad pho

I just can't trust this photo. The arrows for the screw cap and spring are wrong. And when I opened it, the spring and the fuse switched in position.

Here are my questions:

1. There are two curved copper pieces. It supposed to be connected as negative pole. One of them connecting to the positive pole through an electric resistance and the RED light, one of them is stand alone. Which one should I connect to?

2. Should the fuse connect to the "contact head" or the spring connect to the "contact head" ?

The original one to be replaced by this item is very simple. The two side curved copper is actually one piece of copper as negative pole, and the positive pole is directly connect to the "contact head". No light, no fuse. With the new item, I have two pieces of curved coppers, and they're not connected. It seems totally different.

All is OK except the spring and screw cap labels are reversed in error.

Where did you buy this from, Heath Kit?
