Hey guys, bought a 1990 sunbird, it needed a new kill switch, because the other one didn't work. Went to the local marine store and they gave me a 4 pin kill switch. Well, when I went to replace it the old one was not even hooked up. Wires were cut and its only a 2 wire kill switch. Need some help finding a "how to" for the 4 pin install wire code etc. Thanks in advance!

With the lanyard in the switch you want to use the 2 contacts which are connected. With the lanyard pulled those 2 contacts should be open.

Connect to the purple wire after the key

Don't know which switch, but its probably setup for twin motors and can just use 2 of the contacts for one
