Connect Bat to Ignition Switch power and on to +12v (battery positive).
Connect IGN to Ignition Switch Ignition and on to + terminal on ignition coil.
Connect Sol to Ignition Switch Start and on to starter solenoid male spade terminal.
Makes sense? |

Sorry. Let me try it this way:
(1) Harness wire Ignition Switch power - Connect one end of that wire to Bat on ignition switch, and the other end to +12v (i.e. positive battery terminal, or a fuse that's always +12v when fuse is not blown).
(2) Harness wire Ignition Switch Start - Connect one end of that wire to Sol on ignition switch, and the other end to male spade terminal on starter solenoid.
(3) Harness wire Ignition Switch Ignition - Connect one end of that wire to IGN on ignition switch, and the other end to + terminal on ignition coil. |

On ignition switch...
BAT is source of 12 volts (battery).
IGN is to + side of coil (and any other devices that power is controlled by ignition switch).
SOL is to terminal 50 of starter solenoid.
Sort of like graphic below....

Ok Thanks! will ohm them out since the harness is one piece. Just have 4 wires and 3 spades on the switch |
