Default Raptor 700 kill switch

I'm trying to put a pro design tether kill switch on the raptor 700 and cant figure out were on the bike to hook up the positive wire from the switch. Anyone know? I would greatly appreciate any help. -- D

No clue, just a bump for you.

Thanks, I'm beginning to get really frustrated with this thing. The dealership doesn't even have a clue as to were to put it. They told me to wire it to the on/off swith on the handlebars, but all that's doing is blowing the ignition fuse. Oh well I'll keep trying till I get it or fry the ECU.

Feels like I'm asking questions in vain on here nowadays. Seems like if you don't ask which bike is faster, or trash talk you can't get a reply. Well anyways, I've got it figured out after a day of cursing, and going through nearly 10 fuses. So here it is. Grind off some of the paint anywhere on the steel part of the frame and bolt on your ground wire (short wire for Pro Design Kill Switch). Attach the pos (longer wire) to the "negative" wire on the coil pac, (all the instructions I found said to use the pos coil wire, but all this will do is blow fuses). It is the bottom negative wire (orange) that you want. Solder it in and tape it up good and your done. Hope this helps someone not have to go through the mess I have dealt with today.

Thanks for the info. I wonder why the neg side instead of the positive side of the coil?

The negative side of the coil is probably the switching side and grounding it out will not let any spark happen.
