M1123 ignition/start switch

[flat skiff]

Hello all,
New member here to the site and recently purchased a low mileage M1123 from Yermo,Ca. The unit was inoperable when I purchased it with a few parts missing. Mainly the start switch, on the base whoever removed the old switch just cut the three wires so there are no tags on the wires letting you know location. The three wires by the wiring diagram show to be 11a, 14a, and 29a. Any suggestions on figuring out which wire is which without any tags on them would be greatly appreciated. Just wanting to bump the engine over to start checking things out.

Thanks

Make sure none of the three are touching anything. Connect the batteries. Measure for 24 volts in all three wires. The hot one is the wire that goes to the battery. Touch that wire to one of the others. If the instruments come on, well that’s not the starter wire.
