"1969 BSA Firebird Scrambler 650"


  

          

Trying to install a Tricon Kill switch (horn, dimmer, kill) but have no connection info available. Tried connecting kill switch between 1 set of points but wouldn't kill motor,tried connecting to both points but then bike wouldn't start.Tried connecting at coils blew fuse. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

The tricon with a kill switch (short to ground) is for a magneto powered engine and not for a later points/coil bike.
You could ignore the kill button function.
