Greg,

The two terminals are marked 'G' and 'W,' probably on the Bakelite part of the switch, and Yellow goes to 'G' and Red/Black striped wire to 'W' ... and, yes, if you reversed the wires ... that Thermo-Time Switch contact is shorting out your ignition switch at any temp below about 107 degrees F, which ain't good for either Ig. sw or Thermo-Time switch!!!

I think you found one of those NASA-type single-point failures that blew-up the Oxygen tank on Apollo 13!!! You didn't happen to smell the ignition switch frying, did you?
