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.
