Hey all, I've been given a 552 in pieces my only other WH's are pull start RJs . Can someone tell me if the 552 use's a solenoid for the key switch the manual shows a non descript three prong thinger with no name on it, and the parts list doesn't mention one but there are a few In the box of parts I was given . Thanks HenryG.

Yes I'm aware of the starter switch, but the key switch is what I'm asking about it shows only one wire going to a non descript component on the wiring diagram ?

Yes I'm aware of the GIANT starter switch I'm asking about the key switch I see only one wire going from it to a non descript component with three prongs in the wiring diagram ?

On the plastic board you will see a wire coming out from behind the flywheel and connected to a single post. That's your kill for the switch. (usually upper left corner but they do get reinstalled upside down sometimes). The other 2 wires from under the flywheel will go to the fuses and diodes for charging the battery.

Actually, it may be in the middle top. Green wire from engine

That's the answer I was seeking does that board have a cover looks a little scary
