been trying to rewire my melos,think I may have boo booed.could someone please tell me if I have wired the ignition the correct way..my ignition switch has four terminals.

1= acc

2=batt

3=ign

4=st.

I have 3 wires

1=brown

2=white

3=red/white

according to premier wiring the white goes to the coil positive,red/white to the starter solenoid and brown to the starter solenoid.

here goes.....I get the white to the coil + side and I think the red/white to a little spade connection on side of solenoid.but does the brown go to the in side of the starter solenoid or the out as it has two poles to it.

also which wire goes to which connector on the actual ignition switch..

any help will be appreciated..

I know it's an Event getting the wiring sorted but you may get a better response in the Electrical section of the forum

Check the wires are correct but the standard connections would be

Brown - Batt, but check brown is permanently live, i.e. direct to battery.

White - Ign, white should feed all non fused circuits, which are live with the ignition on.

Red / White - St, this wire should run directly to the starter solenoind.

The Acc terminal is for things like radios which you might want on with the other circuits off.
