replacing engine in my gta..
got everything mounted up and wired up.
I had to replace the starter solenoid because I broke the orginal one..

anyways the replacement one has a spot for a big wire and 2 sport for a little wire. My stock one only has 1 spot for a little wire..

I hooked it up and it doesnt do anything when I turn the key now..
Is this the wrong solenoid or do I probly have somethign else off?
Anyone know why the aftermarket one would have 2 places for a little wire?

thanks

 

hooked wire up to wrong small post.should be labeled "s" and "I".you want to use s terminal.this is a generic solenoid that will als work on older cars with points ignition.hook up to s and you should be fine.

 

hmmm I hooked up to the other post and still nothing...
I got 3 wires running to the big terminal and 1 wire running to the small terminal.

am I missing something

 

anyone have a wiring digrham?

 

I guess it helps if you put it in park!!!!!

Running great now!!! lol
thanks

 

Good catch...
