bayou 220 ignition switch?

220bayou · 09-14-2009

hi,

i am looking at a few ignition switches/keys on ebay. my bayou 220 is a 97 model, what is odd i have found a few switches that claim to be from a 97 model some have 4 connecting wires and some with just the brown and white wire. my clymer manual shows 4 wires should be on my model,however there is only the brown and white on my machine,why would there be a different igntion switch out there? there was no ignition switch on my atv,as it had started being parted out when i bought it.

thanks,Bill

A toggle switch will work fine as well. White is the hot wire so make sure it doesn't touch ground. Same with the brown.
