I copied and pasted the MSD Enhancer wire connections below my question here (I copied it from the tech FAQ). My question is why do I have to connect the Start/Stop Switch Black Male to the Stator Black Female if they are ground wires and they are already bolted to a ground post?

Maybe my e-box is mesed up. I don't actually have a male/female, I have a male/male. But either way... is it just a redundant ground connection?

A ground is a ground as far as I'm concerned. I just made my CDI ground on the same post as the stator to be sure of a good connection. I had a spare ground on my Advent hook up too because I disconnected the temp probe.
