Ignition switch installation help needed
I have a bad ignition switch on my 2001 Dyna Superglide. I went to my local indy today and picked up a new switch which was from Bikers Choice #71428-90A and has only 2 wires and fits Dynas 1991-2002. The existing switch has 3 wires. Can I use the 2 wire switch? If so, what does the 3rd wirego to?
I don't have the electrical manual, tried to pick one up and had to order one.
Any help will be appreciated since all the bike shops are closed for the rest of the weekend and I want to go riding.

RE: Ignition switch installation help needed - Solved
Figured I would post what I did to solve the problem if someone in the future doesn't want to spend the $102 for a HD replacement switch.
The Bikers Choice switch (cost $26) has white and red wires and the existing switchhad:
Red wire to Battery
red/grey to accessory fuse
red/black to instr. fuse
Wired red to red
red/grey and red/black to white
Everything is then switched on with the ignition, no accessory available which is really no big deal since I don't run a radio or anything like that.
I hope this might help someone else out.
