Rewiring a ignition switch

[Brad406]

Ok I took the boat apart 4 years ago. And now for the life of me I cant remember how to wire the ignition switch. I have burned up a couple of wires trying to figure it out. I need a dumby proof daigram on how to do it! The switch has B, S, I, A as the points. I dont want to try and set the boat on fire again it is to a inboard engine

Too late for this situation, but your very situation is why I ALWAYS tell anyone to take tons of pictures before, during and after you start a project of any type. Amazing how many times you will refer back to those pictures.

Shado thank you. For some reason I can only get the starter to turn with the A wire hooked up to the starter. Will try it again. GM yes you are right I took alot of pictures for the stringers but none of the wiring. Well live and learn the hard way lol

Well look at it this way, if you learned something it was a good lesson.
