87 6.9 Starting Wiring Issue
I would need a better pic of where #1& #3 come from on the remote Solenoid ...
The other way to know what that wire does ..hook up a Volt meter to it and have some one turn on key, turn to start pos, and such forth .. I "Think" #1 & #3 go to starter .. but I need more pics to get my bearings .. I dont think mine and yours look the same from what I CAN see ...
When you can .. post a few more pics .. gald to help oout if I can ...

Thank you. I already took off the starter so Im not even sure where they connected off the top of my head. I could point out which one the relay connected to, but like I said #3 wasnt connect to the starter at all. It was just cut off previously and dangling there with no end on it.
I just removed the fried wire coming from the relay going down the the starter. Then I soldered a new end on the 00 that didnt have one on it and connected that to the main power on the starter. Now she fires up like a champ every time. I think the dude before me just had no clue what he was doing and thought he needed that wire coming down.
I had a belt throw and take out the wire from the relay to the starter, it was 12 or 14 gauge, I replaced the relay wire with 10guage, is that big enough? That should be low current to just trip the solenoid on the actual starter, right?
