Just guessing,but seems like the wire should either tie into the cdi black(kill wire) or to the ignition switch black to ground out the ignition.

Blk/red wire should be the main power wire to the cdi. Black/white wire to the coil,black wire is the kill wire on the cdi. Sounds like you're just killing/grounding the power to the cdi which in a sense is the same as grounding the black kill wire to the frame. If it works with the old remote,should be good enough.
