The cables are short so you can't raise the water barrier high enough to see them. I had never seen the little pin that holds the ball in the socket. Finally realized that you unclick pin from bottom of ball, rotate and remove pin. Ball was kinda hard to remove from socket after I removed pin. I had to put the pins back in by feel but I got them in.
The next time it will be a lot easier.....newbe problems 1st time.
