Ok, my ignition switch wore out last year on my 2004 (and a half) sportsman 600. I replaced it with knock off and it has melted on me. I was wondering if anyone can help with the actual switching in the ignition. When it melted, it melted the wire harness as well, so I need to cut it off. I was hoping to buy an aftermarket key and switch with a harness and just solder it into the wires on the bike. any info would be great. Not sure what is connecting and when?

W/r – Soloniod
R/bl – circuit breaker
R – Left Handle bar/Acc #1 (??)
R/w – Head lamp pod (??)
Bl – ETC/Awd
Br – Br SS (ground I think)
