Finally bought a new starter the other day and went to put it in last night. Directions are simple. I located it last night and climbed underneath to take it out. Unscrewed everything and unhooked the two wires. One connects to the negative on the battery and the other I believe connects to the switch terminal. Anyway, I pulled it out from underneath and climbed out to pick up the new starter. When I went back under there was a wire missing. The only wire there was the one that connects to the battery. It just disapeared, nowhere to be found. I searched for three hours trying to find that wire and no luck. Its a simple job to and this is what is holding me up. Does anyone know where this wire connects or how i can trace back and locate it?

Thanks, Andrew

 

I may be wrong but I think the wire you're talking about is purple in colour and goes round the rear of the engine and through the firewall and goes to the clutch pedal switch.... unless you've got an automatic in which case I've no idea where it goes.....
