1968 SS 12 key switch wiring

[ottumwaiowa]

Hello, I bought an original starter switch for my 68 SS 12 and there is five lugs on it but none marked. Can anyone tell me what goes to where? I have a amy gauge, headlight switch, cigarette lighter on it. I don't want to burn anything up by guessing which is battery etc.

Unfortunately in about 72 in western NC on a two lane turn i hit the rock cliff head on. I couldn't see through the bottom of a long neck Budweiser bottle.

Didn't know you were talking about a car. pos. feed, ignition, accessory., starter, and voltage jump to your coil

Thanks reddragon for the info I really appreciate it. I was wondering why anyone would ask for help for a car on a Sears tractor forum? Maybe the cigarette lighter threw you all off but the 1968 Sears SS 12 has one on the dash. The next time I go by Bass Pro I will get a boat swivel beer can holder for it since it didn't come with one.
