1976 O'Day 25 with westerbeke vire 7 engine. I'm rewiring boat but don't know where 2 wires attached to --pull to stop knob--on cockpit control panel go to turn off engine

I have the same motor and recently had the flywheel off trying to diagnose why my kill switch isn't working. The two wire from the kill switch are led into a terminal block on top of the front of the motor. Per my wiring diagram, one is to go ground. The other goes into the "Auxiliary lighting coil". I'm not sure exactly how this all works yet as I am still having an issue with something being shorted to ground in the entire system. Take a look at the attached site if you haven't yet. I can't quickly find the wiring diagram I have for mine, but there are a couple others in there. Good luck. Greg
