the ignition plug had one black wire that ran to one side of a fuse.it is now hooked to one side of the push button. one orange wire that loops all the safety stuff and to the solonoid relay. i hooked that to the other side of the push button. the machine starts fine with charged battery.it had 2 yellow wires also looping all the safety stuff. i hooked them to a grounded toggle when the engine is running and i flip the toggle the engine shuts off. two green wires are still in the plug and are not being used. and lastly a red wire which is not being used. i have a red and white wire coming from the engine the white one powers the lights while the machine is running and i assume the red one charges the battery but i don't know how or where to hook it. there is no regulator ,rectifier,generator none of that stuff. everything was fine until i put in push button. can't find original switch it's an old montgomery wards. i've tried hooking the red wire from the engine to a number of differenI changed my signature 2000 elite garden tractor ignition switch to push button now my battery won%26039;t charge
The red wire from the engine should go to the ammeter if there is one and than to the soleniod. Same terminal that the battery is hooked to not the starter cable side.
