Is it possible that this is the trigger for the starter, I have one wire label to starter that goes to the battery side of starter selinoid but need a return from start switch to the other side of selinoid.
All other systems wired and accounted for ...I think!
thanks,Ed
put it to a hot side of the switch when the key is in the run position,it will not charge if it don't get 12 volt's to it in the run position.
