Honda Generator Ignition Help

Honda Generator Ignition Help

Honda Generator Ignition Help

(OP)
My friend has a Honda EM5000 Generator that the ignition (key and everything) is missing.  All that's left is a female connector with 6 wires coming out of it.  Originally the key would be turned on and you would pull start the motor or if you had it connected to the battery there is an electric start.  I know two of the wires go to an oil pressure switch and two go to the coil.  

My question is what needs to be jumped out in order for the generator to start with the rope?
