ignition switch questions
The previous owner changed the ignition switch to an unknown switch. The unknown switch has two wires on each of three side connections marked BAT - IGN - ACC, and a small wire (Red) to a central terminal.
My problem is the correct replacement switch looks to require a socket that MAY have been cut (and tossed) by PO and new terminal connectors crimped on. I need some help to identify the three locations of the new switch, that were in the missing socket. Also, My wiring diagram seems to show several colors that are not there currently.
What I know now is in the chart picture.
What I think is: The Pink is ignition
the two yellow are Battery
the Gray and red are Accessory
The lone red is Unknown
On the new switch, can you tell me which are which, since I will have to cut the connectors off and reinstall a slide type connector splicing where necessary.

63 views and no comments-- I must be asking the wrong question.
Could someone send me the wiring diagram of the ignition switch. My wiring only shows a rudimentary sketch of the wiring to the socket (Loom?)
Perhaps someone has a picture of the wiring or ignition switch in a 65 or 66 that would show what it used to look like before the previous owner went at it with wire cutters
Thanks for any help -Scott

I tried to take a picture but it didn't come out very clearly. Is this the diagram that you have? http://www.justanswer.com/uploads/se...ng_diagram.pdf
If you want to give me a call, I can look at the switch and tell you what is connected to each terminal.
