Just unhook the stock coils and hook up the same wires to the Accel coils. There is no polarity on the Accel coils, so it does not matter which wire goes to which side of the coil.

Or maybe it is a non running bike with no coils that you bought or something?

You will also find that the mounting holes on the Accel coils are slightly wider than the mount holes on your frame. I used the provided bolt/nut on one side and an inch longer bolt on the other... kind of goes through the holes at an angle. Otherwise you will have to fabricate a bracket...

I brought this as a project, it has a dyna s ign. a new valve job,and accel coils that are partially wired! they will not spark while rotating the engine,the dyna is installed correctly~ could it be the cam timing? tank you Glassman

Cam timing has absolutely nothing to do with the ignition (on the KZ's anyway).
Need to get the Dyna experts in here, but I'll do the best I can in the meantime.

Do you have 12 volts at the Dyna S ignition module? The wires from the two coils going to the Dyna should have 10-12 volts, if not, check the power wires going to the coils from the wiring harness, they should have at least 12 volts. Check that then post again, maybe a Dyna expert will be here by then :)

Dyna S has three wires coming from the two pickup coils. A red wire powers the thing. A green wire comes from 2/3 pickup and a black wire comes from the 1/4 pickup. The green wire goes to EITHER lug on the 2/3 coil which is generally the right hand coil as you sit on the bike. The black wire goes to EITHER lug on the 1/4 left coil as you sit on the bike. You should have yellow/red wires connected to each of the other lugs on the coils providing power. These wires ride along the wiring harness to about over the valve cover where a two output connector comes out of the harness. In any case, the red wire from the Dyna S must splice INTO a yellow/red wire or the wire feeding the connector that the yellow/red wires connect to.

If the bike hasn't been running with the new Dyna S, it needs to be timed. Get a timing light. Remove the two screws that hold your points plate. Loosen the three screws that hold the backing plate for the Dyna S pick ups. Start the bike and let it warm. Put your timing light pick up on the #4 plug wire. Put the power clips on the battery... red on hot; black on negative. Point your timing gun at the cutout on the mechanical timing advance and observe the marks. At idle, the mark on the case should align with the 1/4 F mark. Turn the backing plate until it is spot on. Stop the bike and tighten the 3 mount screws on the backing plate. Start bike and rev it a bit... about 3500 rpm will do and ensure that the mechanical advance is working by watching the advance rotate away from the F mark to the T mark (Some plates have different marks but watch for the rotation). A regular part of maintenance of your bike is cleaning and lubricating the mechanical advance which is steel and tends to oxidize. Now, stop the bike and put your timing light pickup on #3 plug wire. Also loosen the two VERY SMALL socket head mounting bolts for the 2/3 (right hand) pickup. Start the bike and at idle, move the 2/3 pickup to where the mark on the case aligns with the 2/3 F at idle as observed under the light. Once you have the timing lined up, shut it down and tighten the two little mount screws. They give you the socket head wrench in the original Dyna S kit but you may have to find one before doing this tuning as the thing is very small...

Once you have things connected and timed, check the voltage at the coils. With bike off, put a multimeter POS lead on the yellow/red wire lug on a coil and the NEG lead on a frame ground while the meter is in VDC scale. You should have about 12.5 VDC when you turn the key on. If you have less, look up the coil powering using an automotive relay in the Filebase write up and give it a try.
