89 Wildcat key switch wiring????? - Snowmobile Forum: Your #1 Snowmobile Forum

WEATHERBY460 · 09-16-2006, 02:59 PM

Please help me hook up these wires. These wires are located were the key switch, tether, and hand warmer switches are. I do not want to use the tether or the hand warmers anymore. Basically just need to know what wires I need hooked up to the key switch and what the red wires are used for.
Thank you in advance.

black wire with red stripe attached to a female connector
(looks like it goes to the key start switch)

single brown wire attached to a female connector
(not sure were that is going) (might get hooked to key switch)

double brown wire attached to a female connector
(1 wire goes to the engine stator assembly connector, and the other wire goes to the optional accessory connector) (might get hooked to key switch)

red wire with white stripe
(no idea what it is used for)

red wire
(no idea what it is used for)

green wire
(appears to be going to the hood harness connector, and was once hooked up to the hand warmer switch) (hoping I can leave it unhooked)

yellow wire with male connector
(appears to have once been hooked up to the hand warmer switch also acoording to the clymer diagram) (hoping I can leave it unhooked)

I have the shop manual for the 89 wildcat and an 89 wildcat with all electrical correct. I can get the answers if you still need.

This case shows why it's a good idea to label the wires and plugins when you are disassembling something so that when you reassemble it, you know where the wires and plugs go.
