light switch

[ttfo]

I have a b7100hst-d. when I purchased it, it had a toggle switch for the lights. I am in the processes of rebuilding it. I purchased the stock light switch from kubota and was expecting to find connection screws on the back. There are no connection screws. It does have copper "ports". I am "assuming" i need some kind of special connector, but cannot find anything in the parts diagram. Can anyone help me with what I am missing?
Thanks

Can you post a pic of the back of the switch?

The wires get soldered to the back of the switch.

You will want to solder in a pigtail wire and put crimps on that so you have a disconnect and an easer way to solder.
May want to tin the wire and contacts first.

This is one of my next priorities- I have some LED flasher rear lights (red to rear, amber to the front) to install and when I pulled the switch to check the wiring setup, I found the same switch with soldered-in wires, but the "hot" wire was frayed down to about two strands. I'll solder in a new pigtail, add a connector, & work from there.
