Is the Accessory terminal on the ignition switch "hot" when the ignition is on or just the Ignition terminal. In other words, which one should I attach things like heater, wipers, radio, etc. | | |

Run the power to the coil from the Ign. position, and power everything else from the Acc. terminal. If the switch has a spring-loaded "start" position, it will switch off accessories during cranking, to provide max power to the ignition system while the starter is running.
