Now we work on the wiring their is 3 wires that we want to remove. For this procedure I usually use a needle nose plier. You can go ahead and pull the 3 wires out of the switch.
One of my first times in exchanging a switch I wired it incorrectly and sent it to a customer. When the customer received it the vacuum ran backwards! Lets just say they were not to amused : With the wires out we are now ready to remove the switch. Now the switch is out. We simply reverse the process. Sometimes to get the switch in and out there has to be some wiggling and maneuvering to get it in and out.
So now you put the new switch in and put the wires back not so easy sometimes and the screw. Then you reconnect the linkage to the foot pedal. When you put the pivot assembly back on don't forget to align up the linkage to the transmission so the transmission works correctly. Then put the rest of the vacuum back together and you are done. This is a good time to congratulate yourself, this is one of the hardest repairs to do on a kirby :.
