Subject:      Starter Wire Connection
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Today while making up the last few remaining wire connections in the engine compartment, I ran into something puzzling. The wire harness feeding the starter solenoid has TWO red wires coming out of it: a thicker gauge one with a black plastic female spade connector and a thinner one with a white connector. On top of the solenoid I can only feel one connection point. The starter works with the thicker one connected. My question is, what's the other connector for? Is there some place up there I can't see where this should be connected? Everything seems to work without it.
