Hey thanks for all that info. Im a bit confused though. Can I still use the setup I have now being the purple/ignition hot wire to the seic/yellow green wire or do i have to use the resistor with the pto_vref and pto_rpm. Id like to just add the resistor in conjunction with my current setup and switch but i also dont want to screw anything up. Thanks again for trhat chart

If you only want a fixed RPM other than the default 1,200 RPM there is a resistor ohm value to RPM chart in the 2009 Body Builders Layout Book (pg 342) that will let you select the resistor value to set the RPM you want. Pg 343 has the wiring diagram showing the selected resistor connected between PTO_VREF (white/brown) and PTO_RPM (green) for fixed RPM use.
Per the poorly formatted copy of the chart below, a 22K ohm resistor will set 1,320 RPM.
