HelloCustomer Here are two wire diagrams. The first is for the parcel delivery van, second is non parcel vehicle, Either way the yellow wire is 12V+ from the ignition switch, and purple is 12V+ going to starter solenoid. Any more questions please ask.graphicgraphic

Customer replied 1778 days and 2 hours ago.

my problem is smoke is coming from yellow wire off nuetral safety switch which is cauing a no start. Any ideas?

Note prior owner did some crazy wiring he had yellow wire spliced one going to neutral switch other looks like going to fuse box not sure? Even after taking away splice and running yellow wire straight from ignition switch to neutral switch caused spark/smoke.39627.449337037

It is possible that the neutral safety switch is shorted. Does the short go away when you unplug the neutral switch? If so, I would suspect the switch is shorted.
