Default Re: Can you hot wire a model A?

I hate to say this Kurt, but I don't think the points are grounded when the switch is off. I just went over the circuit and you may be right. It depends on the internal conductors in the switch. If it disconnects the switch from the coil while grounding the wire to the points , then it will work as you have pointed out. Jack
