Good morning. Brought the electrical system up on the Fresno 914 - so far so good.
Well, mostly so far so good. My starter solenoid wiring is missing in (in)action. I believe that wiring comes through the tunnel in the cabin but where should it exit the firewall? Once this is sorted I should be able to time it and see if I can get it fired on a temporary fuel tank while the original one is being coated. Thanks! |

The stock design is for the wire to come from the ignition switch, back through the car harness and into the replay plate via the 14-pin connector pin 1, through the relay plate to the 12-pin connector pin 6 (your diagram), then a yellow wire from there through the rear firewall to the starter solenoid.
Just to clarify, the stock design does not incorporate a separate relay solenoid. So I'm guessing car won't crank? Pull the T12 connector and see if you get 12V when the key is turned to the start position. |
