The new switch got the last laugh anyway, even though the wiring diagram is clear. Murphy's Law.
The motor has two wires (red and white) and the red and black wires from there to the switch place inside the trailer have to be connected at the switch end for IN and OUT.
It doesn't matter what the switch's wiring diagram says for the red and black wires to the motor because for sure, whoever put the red and black wires on the motor's red and white wires will nave done them the other way around! Argghh!
So put those two wires at the switch on last after the pos and neg wires are connected. Then you can play trial and error to find out which one is really IN and which is really OUT. :(
