New guy intro.....

Just wanted to say hi.
I have a 84' 200ES I recently bought, she needs alot of work. Bought it off a buddy of mine, last time it ran was about 3 yrs ago. Key is lost, I took the wiring to switch, according to shop manual it looks like if you connect the red/yellow red that gives power to the wiring harness, connect black/green wires that kills power. Would that be correct?
Thanks

Actually the complete switch that the key fits into was gone, I had the female plug left, that would plug into back of switch left.
Personally I'd like to put on a toggle switch setup if possible

Local Honda dealer did that for me on my 82 XL500R, my 76 GL1000, and my 73 CL350.

Welcome to the boards. Invest in a nice "Honda" shop manual. You'll thank yourself later. Good luck with your project. Get some pictures on here.

I cant remeber the color codes off the top off my head. But it is easy to figure out with a voltmeter. You will have a supllied power, which will be hot. A ground, then one or two control wires. Take your meter and find your ground and your power. Then i would take an inline fuse setup just to be on the safe side and run a jumper to one of the empty spots. I am pretty sure this will be yellow or orange. Now check and see if you have power to the ignition. Then put a toggle inline. Some models have a auxillary wire coming from the ignition.

what part of Texas are you from.

I Broke the ignition on my 200m I used to have so I just disconnected the wires that wired the ingition into the harness and it worked fine.
