Having electrical problems on your K5?
alward25:
Nothing because it is still not going to ground and that is what kills the engine. The kill switch has a contact that you close when you push it completing the circuit to ground.
sandblaster:
Makes sense because those two wires have continuity between them.
Thanks Alward25 for clearing that up.. :-o

Your talking about the wire in the bottom right corner of the pic & yes thats longer & easier to see where it goes.
But look at the label
Stop Switch
black white to
*cdi black white*
Right below that is
*cdi black white to*
stator black/white
* They * both come out of the cdi & are the same color & length. Their the first 2 out of the loom coming from the cdi
Sorry if I'm being dumb :? I just would like to be able to completely unplug my cdi & just not worry if it will start again.
sandblaster:
No, your not being dumb.
Sometimes it can be hard to explain what you are thinking so confusion is easy.
Either of those specific black/white wires can be switched around as they go to the same place within the CDI.
Then again you can always label the wires before you take them apart :lol:

Thats exactly what I wanted to hear :-D
It also explains why I shocked the s**t outta myself with the exposed kill wire yesterday

:roll: :? :? :? You mean you can write on tape & mark them
But really how many used parts suppliers label the cdi wire before they send it to you :-D :-D :-D
