Starting Problems

[january 131CL]

OK. The starting problem re-visited.
Instead of allowing all the solenoid voltage and amps to travel through the ignition switch,
I introduced a relay whereby the ignition switch only instructed the relay to allow
batt power provide power to operate the solenoid.

Ok, at least tell me if I am wrong. 

I suspect that the thick gauge brown wire that ends somewhere into the dash could be a power feed to the dash (ignition and other fused circuits), feeding battery power. An existing wire from the battery ends at the solenoid waiting for the starter relay function to be activated and this brown wire takes the battery power over to the dash.

If you want to know if the brown wire has some power all you need to do is take a meter put the red meter cable in it and put the black with the car body or directly to the earth. Turn on and off all switches you know and see it you get a reading. But if it is a very thick wire normaly means that a high voltage passes from it. Hope I helped you a little.

I've found out the mystery of the brown wire in another thread, Electrical problems by tas131. It is a power feed wire to the fusebox as I suspect. Solves my problem of which points I have to tie the brown wire to at its solenoid end.

Glad I could help!

Well you should thank Thotos too!
