On the side of the coil there is a little terminal if you take a wire form that to a switch and the other terminal on the switch and earth it out on the chassis..
goes to kill switch
A loose kill switch wire on your out board motor will cause the engine to lose power. As the kill switch loses contact the motor will begin to bog down or completely quit.
Just put a switch in the power wire going to the coil.
Isolate the wire going into kill switch [wrap some tape round it] so it cannot be earthed.
The starter needs a large wire from the battery and a wire from the starter switch. These are connected to the solenoid that is attached to the starter.
you run aline to the blak wire
If the mower has a shift knob control for "Start" "Run" and 'Stop', the kill switch will be on the end of the cable that leads to the throttle bracket. If the mower has the safety handle that shuts off the mower when it is not depressed, the kill switch will be at the end of the cable that leads from the handle to the engine. If the mower is operated with an on-off ignition switch, the kill switch wire will be spliced to the switch "off" wire some where between the throttle cable and the switch.
If I remember correctly, an ignition "Kill Switch" is a secret switch (or button) that must be pushed into a particular position for the ignition system to start the car.... That being said.... Simple. If it's a button that has to be pressed for the (key) ignition to start the car, duct tape it in place. Same for a "light switch" switch". OR...you could solder a wire to circumvent the switch..... :) Now remember...if the switch uses a thicker wire....you're going to want to use a thicker wire when you solder it :)
No kill swoitch. You either got a wire on the wrong place or burned a fuseable link.
The kill-switdh wire is disconnected. loose. or broken. The kill-switch wire starts from the OFF position of the ignition switch and meets another wire that leads to GOUND to stop the engine.
There is a loose wire between the switch and where the wire connects to the kill switch. On my Murray, the wire from the switch meets a wire that comes from under the cover where the spark plug fits. They connect together at the throttle control bracket. You might want to check the entire length of the wire(s).
More than likely the wire that runs from the ignition switch to the kill switch is disconnected, loose, or broken. The wire starts at the OFF position of the ignition switch and connects to another wire that shuts off the engine.
