I ordered a set of switches for $10, WOW! Can't hurt to have spares around, eh ? After hooking up the switch above and activating it, nothing happened, no solenoid. I do have another toggle that springs back to what I believe is called "Normally open" when let go, I think. There is no continuity until I press the switch. The start button only needs to be active while starting, yes? Thus, that one will do better anyway? Today, Wednesday, I probably will be needing to go do a big favor for my sister and return in the eve, hopefully. You can bet, I'll check in  Just checking because it should work  -- You are turning the key on and squeezing the brakes then hitting the toggle right?  Other than the above then a connection is not making good contact. Yes a spring loaded one would be better. Alleyoop |

Leave the connector alone and just clear bar wire on each and connect the toggle with two pieces of wire to each. That way when and if you get a new switch you can just plug it back in.
Just peel off some of the protective covering and splice in the toggle wires.

HAHAHAHA, eat hardy, yea all is needed is to make contact with both wires is all and a toggle switch heck even a light switch will work  I had one guy could not afford a new ignition so I told him to use a light switch for his ignition off and on, worked like a charm  |

Give it a shot nothing to loose but what I would do is put something behind them because they will bend back and not make contact. But great try since you cannot get a switch right away nothing to loose and you know how to activate it without it for continuing on with starting the motor and getting that all setup while you wait on a switch HECK you can use a toggle switch for that matter ON and OFF.

After what you did with the scoot that switch does not have a prayer it will turn out brand new |

Looks like the TWO bumps on this part have to make contact with both wires.  |

Here is how to test it: And for shuckles you can take an extra piece of wire hook it up to the Green on the PUSH BUTTON and the other end ground it then push the start button IT SHOULD ACTIVATE the SOLENOID which would mean the GREEN WIRE ona the PUST BUTTON is not grounded or not grounded good.
