jiffers Aren't all green wires grounds? How do you know it goes to the ignition switch? Can you actually see it go there?

[jiffers]

earth wires are black in genral and yes it goes there done a contanuity test 0.03 ohms

My manual says it is a ground. Wouldn't you get continuity then, since it is a common ground ?

[jiffers]

tested from one end to other
its got a live a earth 2 wires to the stator and 1 to the ignition the green one
on the wiring diag i have it says it goes the the pick up coil so a bit confuesed

I rechecked the wiring diagram. That wire goes to the "ignition control module". I don't know what its for or what it does, so sorry for wasting your time. It has something to do with the black/white wire, but I don't know what thats for either:rolleyes:
