Hello, trying to figure out the correct way to connect wires to the ignition coil. I can't tell from the wiring diagram, which positive and which is negative



Do the pink wires go to positive or negative?

I could be wrong, but I don't think it matters. I wired mine with the pink as negative and the other colors as the respective positives. I'm fairly certain they will work either way- the only difference being which way the spark jumps on the spark plug (from electrode to ground, or vice versa)- which, incidentally, happens on one of the plugs anyway, due to the way the wasted spark coils operate.

Short answer- it doesn't matter, so long as what you do is consistent.

doesn't power flow from positive to negative ??, so maybe the black arrows show direction of flow, so pink wires are negative, probably wrong but that's how I look at it, and that's how mine is set up

The arrows are Kawasaki's way of showing the connectors and the arrow is male and rectangle is female.
As Lucien has said it doesn't really matter from a perspective of making it work but the pink is to ground (earth) and the colours connect to the respective coloured wire on the harness. Best to keep it like that because it makes it easy for the next poor bugger that has to work it out to troubleshoot and he may even be you.
As Pete has said the electron flow is actually fron negative but for most purposes in a real world negative is ground and positive is Battery with the exception of some of the cars the english produced up till the early to mid sixties

Plenty of info in FAQ section under coils. A must read

Thanks AERIAL, I do refer to the FAQ's quite often although after having another look I see I must have forgotten to check or just plain missed it somehow
