Neutral Safety switch wiring

I replaced the neutral safety switch as per the correct part number.

How does someone wire this frigging thing. It has 2 small brass terminals that have a small spring type of pin that goes through it and held in place by a tail end.

Is there some sort of special connector I need to crimp on the wires in order to fit into these brass terminals?

And how does someone actually fit these little spring pins back on the terminals?

Also where do these 2 wires go to for a Diesel engine perkins 3 cylinder with a generator?

Thanks

Scott

I replaced my switch on my MF-240-S and I seem to remember I had to customize the connectors, somehow. If you have two wires running to it, and if they have slide-on connectors, maybe you got the wrong switch? But I'd to back to where you got it and ask for the corresponding connector plug. If not, I think any conventional switch would work, if it had the same threads and protrusion length into the transmission case.
Best of luck. Remember, this thing was designed by the BRITISH. You ever own a British sports car? Where you spend Saturday mornings staring at it going "But but why would they design it like THAT???"
 
The ends you need are just run of the mill male end from a plug
in. Bullet connectors? Available at Napa. They plug in and those
little wire clips hold them in.
 
I tried the blue size coded male bullet ones and they fit in the brass ends but I'm having a hard time figuring out how the metal clip holds them in place.

I don't see any cut out on the male bullet end for the spring to hold or grab onto. Just a simple pull from the wire will cause it to come out easily.

I'll have another look tomorrow.

thanks

Hi Scott -

Can you cut a very shallow grove around the bullets with a hacksaw? It shouldn't take much of a lip for the spring clips to hold the ends in place.

I've been following your progress, and you're really coming along with the critter! When you're done, maybe you'd like to come over here and play with one of my carcasses!
