Testing revealed there was some internal grounding on the popout switch to the red wire. I installed my spare popout, tested it all again, put it back together, tested again to be sure, and fixed. So, both the master cutoff and the popout were defective. I think I narrowly averted a disaster!

And thanks to all for the help and suggestions—much appreciated. The color wiring diagram is going to get printed and laminated—it proved very useful today.
