(IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) I complete the rebuild on the rear suspension and now the starter does not work. It does not make a sound...dead. I even installed the replacement starter I had laying around (high torque unit from pelican), and it does not work. What did I screw up this time? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif)

QUOTE(stugray @ May 14 2014, 07:03 AM)  If you short the big black wire (from the battery) to the "Yellow wire goes here" terminal, the starter should try to crank the engine. The big RED wire from BAT to yellow. |

You don't need the yellow wire connected, just pull it off and connect your remote starter lead to that upper spade terminal. |

QUOTE The big RED wire from BAT to yellow. In the pic, the big black wire and the big red wires are connected together. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-419-1399992408.jpg) I just stick a screwdrive in there almost exactly where the yellow arrow is pointing. (NOT a good screwdriver :-) |
