Hi I've searched everywhere for how the starter hooks up. I have 3 main big wires hooked up to the big bolt in the the center and tge chubby purole wire on the S on roght side by tge block and a chubby red on the R side all the way to the left. Is this right or ?

 

i just changed my starter.it little wire goes to the terminal thats out of sight next to the block.

 

Yeah that's where I put the purple one. I have another red small one. Does it go on the small outside post? Does anything go on that one?

 

sorry.my 89 only has one small wire.

 

Helps to mention what year / engine / car you have when seeking help.
Better still FILL IN YOUR PROFILE , so guys don't have to guess what you are talking about

If the red wire has a small terminal then that is the correct position
FWIW ;
R means resistor , a wire to the coil

 

Sorry ita an 90 camaro rs 5.0 just did 350 tbi swap. Any pics of your starter wires you could snap for me plz?

 

Also I have the security dash light flashing do I need a different chip I used one from a 90 1500 pickup
