48 cub ignition switch

i got a new switch. Does it matter which prong is connected to the ammeter and which prong is connected to the coil?

Short answer, NO.

My usual "shade tree mechanic" approach for Katrina w/mag was to disassemble the switch (2 term) and reverse the contact points inside so it was open when pulled out and grounded the mag when I pushed it in! It works! Dusty B

Tractor has magneto with external coil. So, 2 pronged ignition switch with one wire to amp meter and other wire to coil.

short answer no
