QuestionThe ignition switch on my lawn tractor shorted out. The terminal markings on the switch are
S M B G L
I pulled off the terminal wires, put a new switch in, but can't remember what wire goes to what terminal on the new switch.
I don't know a switch from a solonoid, or what a starter looks like, so I don't know how to trace a wire from the battery to....whatever.
Can you help? thanks
AnswerHi Larry
S White Wire (Accessories)
M black wire (Ignition)
B Red Wire (Starter solenoid)
G Black wire (you gotta trace this one, it goes to ground, which is a point where the wire is bolted to the frame)
L No connection
Now- this is a color scheme for sears craftmans and most Briggs and Strattons-
