59 Ingnition Switch Wiring Question

[John F.]

Gents-

See picture attached of my ingition switch.

I have 2 connections for the IGN, 1 connectoin for SOL, 1 connection for ACC, 2 connections for BAT.

I'm assuming the 18 guage pink goes to the single ACC connection

the 14 guage ping goes to 1 of the IGN connections- what attaches on the other connection? anything?

The red from the voltage meter goes to one of the 2 BAT connection - what if anything goes on the other connection?

does anything go on the SOL connection?

I'm conncerned I'm missing something if I have 3 open connections and the wiring diagram is difficult to read.

thanksIMG_0842.jpg

Here is a redraw of the wiring for the switch may clear it up also.
