Try one of these.

Also try this one. Not sure what engine you have but it'll give you the basic idea.

If you are installing new solenoids(starter relays) and they are sticking, don't be surprised if you find they are faulty. People have a lot of problems with the new solenoids on the market. If you have the old original one I would re-install it.

I recently found bunches of Motorcraft starter solenoids for sale at really reasonably prices on Amazon. Got two bad ones in a row from Napa...put the Motorcraft unit on and no problems. I suggest you look there...
