Another starter solenoid question
Test time. Is this right? This is on a 3 week old newer style ECH STH404
On start I should have 12v at the S terminal, and run 12v at the I terminal?I do have around 6v with key on run with engine not running and 10v with engine running at coil side.
It's like I have no power to the coil on start(sometimes),when I go to on/run from start it tries to start cause it will want to bump over once or twice.Jumper from I terminal wire to starter side stud,starts.Also you can jumper from + side battery post to + coil side,starts(stays running with jumper off). New ign switch 6 months ago, 3 week old newer style ECH STH404 Turns over just fine,just won't start(sometimes). Everything nice and tight/clean. I do have a mini starter. If that made any sense.
Just starting doing this/
79 f250 460/c6
Can some explain the start and on/run mode? And what the I and s terminal do?
Ok I think I got it:
S wire, 12v on start to energize solenoid to starter cable post which also provides 12v to I terminal for coil on start only. No volts on s wire or I terminal when running.Right?
