OK here is where I smash a carton of eggs on my face. I got the new converter and took a look at it, the power cord is not what I expected: a lug to put a heavy cable into. No it's a regular power cord with a 3 prong plug on back. To say that was a surprise is no exaggeration.
I cut a hole in the panel under the sink to try to see this converter and was contemplating pulling the stove out to gain access to the thing. I had tugged on the converter end of the power cable to see if it was loose but it seemed firmly attached, which it was.
After this discovery I went out and pulled the other end finding a loose 3 prong plug! *&($$#@!!
Anyway the silver lining to this is that you can return stuff to Amazon no questions asked. I still don't know where the thing plugs in but using an extension cord has it running for the time being until I find the right spot which seems to be at the bottom of the furnace somewhere. I'll put my boroscope to use and find it.
