Starter Problem

I have a 94 Explorer Limited. I changed the positive battery lead and now the starter will not disengage. Will the starter stick in the engaged position, if so can it be unstuck? Is my starter solenoid defective? Or is it in the ignition switch?

Have you got a wirin diagram for the starter circuit.

Not sure but i think on a 94 the ignition switch is wired to the neutral switch then to the starter solenoid.

Does it stop cranking if you shift to reverse or drive???

What does your wiring diagram show for how this is wired??

You can look at the wiring diagram at autozone.com. Put in your vehicle info, and click on repair info, repair manual, chassis electrical.
