Re: Replaced power pack now motor starts wont shut off

Your motor is shut off by grounding the black/yellow wire coming from the power pack. That wire goes to a terminal marked "M" on the switch. There is another "M" terminal on the switch that goes to ground. You can check it with an ohm meter. With the key off you should read continuity from the black/yellow wire at the power pack to ground. If you do then the power pack is bad.
