    New guy intro.....

    Just wanted to say hi.
    I have a 84' 200ES I recently bought, she needs alot of work. Bought it off a buddy of mine, last time it ran was about 3 yrs ago. Key is lost, I took the wiring to switch, according to shop manual it looks like if you connect the red/yellow red that gives power to the wiring harness, connect black/green wires that kills power. Would that be correct?
    Thanks

    Actually the complete switch that the key fits into was gone, I had the female plug left, that would plug into back of switch left.
    Personally I'd like to put on a toggle switch setup if possible

    I cant remeber the color codes off the top off my head. But it is easy to figure out with a voltmeter. You will have a supllied power, which will be hot. A ground, then one or two control wires. Take your meter and find your ground and your power. Then i would take an inline fuse setup just to be on the safe side and run a jumper to one of the empty spots. I am pretty sure this will be yellow or orange. Now check and see if you have power to the ignition. Then put a toggle inline. Some models have a auxillary wire coming from the ignition.

    what part of Texas are you from.
    Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
