Any idea what wire(s) I need to cut/splice to make it think it's always in neutral? Seems the neutral switch has gone bad, noticed it lit up a few times the other day while I was rolling out wire. Shut it off today and no fire. They won't if it thinks it's still in gear.
 
If I had the proper tools and time I would. But this things so old I think the boss would just trade it off as soon as fix it again, and I HATE the ranchers. And no one knows how to build a decent rack anymore.
 
Ok I call it an "old man switch" on the front of the engine find the N switch and splice in to it run the wire up to a push-button on the handlebars it should be a green with a white but I have seen other colors and put that to one side of the switch and a ground on the other side
(the reason I call it an old man switch HONDA didnt put an over-ride on one of the brake levers like everone else did an old man customer of mine would go off and kill his in gear hi gear at that
and not be able to down shift it )

Found it. It's green with a red tracer on this one. What a stoooopud place to run wires on a 4-wheeler. Under the recoil cover half inch from the bottom of the frame 6 inches away from protection from the skidplate.
The light was blinking because the wire was coming apart and shorting to the frame. Heat shrink butt connected it back together and added an old man switch wire. And zip tied everything up to the crankcase breather tube to hopefully keep it all away from corn stalks.
