      What colour are the wires that appear to be cut? Almost no one connects the kill switch, it’s possible that they are the ones not connected…otherwise, hunt for dirty connector pins/sockets, wiggle one wire at a time and see if it cuts out…that’s your best clue without real test equipment. Check all ground connections, coil to engine case and chassis…sometimes a dirty ground is just perverse! You can find wire colors in the Honda manuals, maybe on line, haven’t looked though. Sometimes a stator coil connection vibrates ‘loose”, still there but intermittent. Some disassembly required!

      William thank you for the reply.  If anyone can assist me in direction on how to actually post photos within this I would greatly appreciate that and be happy to post photos.  With that said, the first problem discovered was that the ground wire going from the coil was taped up in the bundle of wires and didnt connect to anything (assuming one of these cut wires is for ground?)  Without  knowing how to post photos here is  a description of the wires and what is not connected and appear broken/cut.

      Larger connector back row: black with green stripe, green w white stripe, green.  Front row: purple, appears to be black w white stripe (broken at the connector),  black appearingly? (also broken), white.

      Smaller connector: Purple with yellow stripe, and green (dead end not connected to anything)

      So, the two wires between the purple and white are the broken ones on the large connector, the green wire on the small connector goes no where and the ground wire from the coil is not connected anywhere.  Thanks again.
