Stihl 025 chainsaw wiring - two wires go into the the handle assembly - Green/Yellow and Grey - they fit onto spade connectors but cannot figure out which nand where?

The long switch spring touches the black wire when in the off position. Follow the spring towards the tank. It has a tab (spade) for the yellow wire female spade connector.

Can't get attachments to work... try following link for a pic of the switch.

One wire is ignition module kill (primary of a magneto) and the other is ignition module frame (engine block).

The two wires run separate to the kill switch which is a momentary single pole.

hope this helps you

To re assemble the carb, connect the throttle wire into the r/h side of the carb, there is a small hole in the throttle spindle, thread the wire into the spindle from the out side and twist so it stays in the spindle, you must do this with the carb off the saw, now push the carb with the wire connected back onto the two studs from the cylinder, refit the black air filter box, fit and tighten the two 8mm nuts, re fit the torx 20 screw into the top of the filter box, re fit the orange plastic plate on the r/h side of the crankcase, now re fit the the back handle and spine assembly, fit the three torx screws back through the anti vib springs and into the crankcase, if not already done remove the three screws securing the l/h side rear handle half, hook the other end of the throttle rod into the trigger, refit the handle half.

Most Stihl machines have an outboard sprocket, so to drive the oil pump gear there is a wire that simply sits into a small cut a way in the edge of the sprocket, just be careful when you re fit the sprocket that the cut a way lines up with the wire.

Jon try check the wires coming from the ignition coil to the on/off switch. one is a ground and the other goes into the coil. When they are connected the coil is turn off and will not spark.

The 345 only has two wires in that area, not sure either of them were green, however there is an earth cut out wire and an earth return wire, the earth return fits onto the spade conection jut above the cut out red switch, the other wire pushes into the side of the red plastic switch, there is a moulded section in the plastic that the terminal just slides into.

The stop switch is just a red plastic rocker that connects the earth cut out wire from the ignition unit, to a grouding wire to cut the ignition,it can be changed on the machine, however it is much easier to remove the air filter housing, start by removing the screws, two at the top and two at the bottom, disconnect the earth wire and the earth return wire, the upper wire has a spade conection onto the earthing strip, the lower wire also has a spade conection but just pushes into the red ignition rocker switch,unhook the choke from the carb, once the housing is removed gently pry out the blue choke pull from the housing, once removed pry off the broken rocker switch, this is sprung loaded via the earthing strip, pay close attention to how this is fitted, so as you know where to re fit if ( take a photo with a mobile phone to help with re instalation )now fit the new rocker switch, re install the earthing strip, re fit the choke pull, re assemble the air filter housing onto the back of the carb, re connect the wires.

It is most likley an earth return wire, it will fit either under one of the ignition unit screws, or there will have been a male spade connector under one of the screws for it to connect to.

it seems that you are talking about the two wires that fit onto the back of the board where there is a black component that is square on the right hand side when looking from the front the wires fit within the black unit. i cannot remember which way around though. i will post again when i next do a wma repair ,tony.
