Title: Kill Switch for '49
Post by: jaymcmeans on September 11, 2022, 04:09:07 PM

I have a wire coming out of the case for the kill switch.  I was reading the service manual this morning and saw that there is supposed to be a kill button.  Can someone send me a picture of this kill button?  Mine has a WICO P3689 magneto.

I don’t have a picture of one, but according to the manual it was a red button.  I would call Wayne and see if he has come across a replacement switch.  If not, I would look for a micro push button. 


In the 1953 Simplex 125 manual it shows a drawing, but no real detail can be discerned.
