I am in the process of wiring a a 74TX650 chopper and unable to locate the wires for the pick-up coil. The wiring diagram shows 3 wires, a brown/white, green/white, and a red/white, however where/what i believe the pick-up coil only has 2 wires, an orange and white or grey wire. Attached is a photo of the area im suspecting to be these 2 wires. if this is the location where is the 3rd wire?

the 74 doesn't have a pick-up coil, it's a points system
