[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 436581, member: 3278"] [size=5]On the back of the key switch you will find the Black/Yellow on a raised terminal vs the other connections. This was done to help prevent carbon tracking from the high voltage Black/yellow lead to the ground terminal in damp conditions. When the key switch is turned to the off position the Bl/Y is connected to ground and shuts off the ignition. A simple check with an ohmeter while the engine is not running will tell you if that connection is intact or not without having to pull the key switch. [/size] [/QUOTE]
