Thanks Jas & Les,

I found the circuit diagram for my new ignition switch. See pic attached. It's a bit scrtachy but the two spade connectors in the centre of the switch are both connected together.

The old ignition lock/switch I was using was off a Mitsubishi Colt which uses a 5 wire harness. The ignition wire has a wire spliced to it running off to the ignition coil. Is this what you were talking about Les ?

My new switch has 5 spade connectors but effectively just 4 since the two in the middle are connected internally.

If I connect this spare 5th wire I have on the harness to the second middle pin then I'm afraid it will produce a short. When I checked it on the multimeter, there was 0 ohmns to ground.

Still a bit confused as to where/what this spare wire goes to. Perhaps I'll need to fire it up and drive somewhere to have it checked out.

Cheers,
Adrian.
