I guess I sent out a little bit of confusion with this one. Sflem849 hit it just right. This is not an ignition switch. It mounts to the back of the tractor to hook a cable to while competing in tractor pulls. In the normal state (pin in) there is no circuit made, if a break a way occurs (pin pulled out) it makes the circuit. I agree one that works the opposite would be a lot easier to wire. Unfortunately all break a way switches that I have found work like this one. Will I hurt anything if I ground out the coil? Seems like to me a dead short across the coil would not be a good thing. A magneto is a completely different animal though.
Thanks
I got called a dick yesterday so I might as well keep it up :D
You better not be the guy I listed a complete website of kill switches for last month!!!
Here is one that can be wired either way. Maybe it is too expensive...esp when compared to Denny's. (For those who don't look at the link, it is only $6.95) Maybe you just can't get over Denny's incredible customer service :lol: :lol: :lol:
Your best bet is to look towards the marine industry. I would send that POS back to Denny and tell him he is a moron for selling you a normally closed switch for a coil tractor!!! He knows damn well they are for magnetos only. Just Google "marine kill switch" and there are 217,000 hits and the whole first page is full of some quality ones. I like to use the shopping tab as well.
I have no idea how you can make the one you have work. Maybe some of those marine kill switch threads will inspire you. Boat motors were on mags a while longer than tractors were so there may be more people who know how to do it. I'm off to Denny's to see how bad you got ripped off.

Today's Featured Article - Experimental Tractors Article - by Danny Bowes (Dsl). Tractor technology appears to have nearly hit it's pinnacle of development. If you agreed with the subtitle, you are rather mistaken. Quite, actually. As a matter of fact, some of the technology experimented with over 40 years ago makes today's tractor technology seem absolutely stale by comparison. Experimentation, from the most complex assembly to the most simple and mundane component, is as an integral a part of any farm tractor's development
