Yep
The yellow splits into 2 greens. One goes back to the subframe with a plug on the end, the other goes into a tapep up mess where one wire emerges and goes to the stator, and others are just plugged nowhere. Sounds like it's wired for lights eh.

What it means is that as well as the pick up coil for the ignition, there would be a lighting coil.
As long as the output wire doesn't short out anywhere, it is fine to disconnect.
