Please confirm my coil is wired up correctly.

Could someone please conform my coil is wired correctly? i labeled them when i took them off but maybe got one crossed up.

1.) 1 have 1 brown/white stripe wire (one connector) and a white (another separate connector) both from the same wiring harness to the coil. i had both of these on the negative pole on the coil.

2) i have 2 brown wires joined to a single connector in a another harness. i have this single connector / 2 wire attached to A pole connector.

I'm looking at a wiring diagram,

1.) it shows a brown/white stripe wire (coming from the "31 / 1" slot on the CDI harness) going to B" on the coil. I assume that is the negative pole.
2.) it shows a white wire (coming from the "A" slot on the CDI harness) going to the "A" pole on the coil.

Thanks Charles

doing a better search and from what i think i read:

1.) the brown stand alone wire should attach to the negative pole on the coil?
2.) the white wire should attach to the "A" pole on the coil?
3.) I also have a brown/white wire with it's own separate connector. Does this attach to the negative or "A" pole on the coil?

Can you fry the coil if it is cross wired?

On my stock 86 930, I have a white wire on the positive pole, and a brown/white wire on the negative pole. They both exit from the same piece of brown plastic insulation.

you are correct. that's what happens when you take something apart 2 months ago and don't label it. i'm such dumb a$$.

I appreciate all the help and a advice, especially the calls and e-mails from several of you to follow up and keep me going. If it were not for this board i probably would not be a 930 owner.
