Please help me! 87 Marathon F&R wiring issue

[tha5150]

so, i just had to get 2 new micro switches after finding out they were bad. all wiring from the F&R switch was removed and i can not figure out where it goes back together. I have searched here, google, other sites and i cant seem to find a solid diagram or the one is unclear that works.



3 photos showing what i need to figure out. basically the entire thing but i know it should be simple. the larger wires are fine but the smaller wires are my problem

I found this but isnt clear. there is a little switch next to the solinoid and i dont know how this connects.

this site is perfect but the little wires arent the one he is explaning. i really need some help here guys. i just bought this thing and burnt the 2 micro switches trying to install a battery meter. i have a feeling the previous owner rigged it and i am trying to figure out what he did instead of doing it the right way.

Hopefully Scotty or one of the other electric gurus will chime in to give you a hand with the issue.

And none of these diagrams help?

The solenoid is a simple on-off switch for the main power supply. Activation is by the two small wires. It requires a positive at one small post in a negative at the other small post. Check the diagrams against your cart.

Where does this yellow wire go??

I know this is my fault for not being able to figure this out and I am so dang frustrated.

I honestly think this staring at wires that are already on here and not seeing them in any diagrams is my problem. I'm trying to figure out how it was, should be and different diagrams.

What polarity is the power in and out of the micro switch shown? The yellow wire should go to a constant source of the opposite polarity.

Micro switch (ms) + then yellow to 36v - or vise versa

Figured it out with help from a friend last night.

Problem is that my key switch is bad and the micro switches were backwards so I was trying hot to hot.
