I just recently purchased my viva. and am having a heck of a time with the electrics.. When i got it the ignition switch was tore off the collum with just a bit of mangled steel and metal left over the 4 way selector switch was still there with only the Aux and ignition wires left in it and a bump switch with the start (red white) and battery (brown) wires connected.. well trying this hodge podged set up nothing works.. trying to do anything with the start circut leads to nothing no clicks ticks or any sound of the starter initiating what soever.. That and having the M35J/I starter i only see one red wire conected to it and im not shure if there is spose to be another one. there or not.. Anyway i think my entire ignition start circuit is screwed.. I have all factory orange manuals for it but the wiring diagrams seem a lil veuge for me. that and i also have one disconnected wire a brown and yellow one associated with the alternator.. im not shure where that goes ether.

any help would be apreciated... yeah trying to get her to atleast running is my goal before i go back to the states with it. and right now i got 2 months to get this work done. So any help at all would be greatly appreciated.
