Thanks, it worked! I did one other thing to improve my odds of getting it right. I figured that there must be some standards for this stuff, and there are on the NMRA site. The #8 socket is next to #1, and #8 is connected to the right side wheels. My continutity tester located #8, and then it was easy. Too bad Bachmann doesn't mark the sockets, or explain how to ID them, or give your suggestion: Just try it.
Now if I can just get rid of all the shorts that this loco causes! I am working on them one at a time.
