So I took plenty of pics before breaking everything down for the restoration, and now I'm going to hook everything back up and the pics are gone. :(. I have a hunch who is responsible (**cough** my wife ** cough**), but that's whatever.

Can someone tell me how the two main black connections are oriented when being plugged in? Neither is keyed. A pic or two would be awesome, but even a description of the wires would be helpful. Thanks.
 
If you can post a pic of the board (United used several boards in cranes under the "Treasure Chest" name) and connector I can take a look tomorrow at ours and see if I can help you out.

That would be terrific. Thank you. The board has the following on it

Classic Inc Crane Circuit

I took some quick cell pics this morning of the connectors. They should show you the correct orientation. Let me know if you need any more info.

These were perfect. Thanks! One thing I didn't ask about earlier is the ribbon cable to the LED board. How is that oriented? I have it plugged into the main pcb, but not sure how it goes to the LED board.
 
That will take a little work to get to. If I am at that location tomorrow I will try to get a picture of the connector.
I would have to think that since it just feeds the LED board it shouldn't do any harm if you hook it up backwards (other than not working). Your results may vary though, so don't take my word for it! ;)
 
Best to put an "up" label on wires harness of these but the way I remember it is bottom plug,orange wire to rt, side plug grey wire to top
