My 2 cents:
The reason for the 3 wires is,– One goes to ground as explained so far. The other two go to the two pole female socket that should be on wiring harness coming from the steering handle. The 2 pole male plug coming from the magneto has only 1 wire connected to it,–the one from the points. The idea was no matter how you plugged the two together, one of the wires coming from the kill button would be making contact with the one wire on the male plug.
Now, my personal observation: I don’t approve of this setup because the male plug connected to the wire coming from the points could ground out if left unplugged from the female socket on the steering handle, but heck, what do I know!
Anyway, I wish all fellow AOMCI members a Merry Christmas and pray for safe journeys for all who are traveling.
