I got my hands on a remote starter button that I was going to use to bump the engine (manually turning the crank pulley has been a real pain). There are quite a few posts here on how to hook this up, but somehow I'm still not getting it. I gather that one clip goes on the S terminal of the starter solenoid. I'm not sure what terminal that is, I can't see an S anywhere. From what I understand, it's the small terminal on the solenoid closest to the engine. Is that right?

I'm especially not clear on where the other lead goes. I think it needs to go to a (+) connection, but I'm not sure where to pick that up. The lead on the button definitely will not reach back to the battery. Is there another (+) terminal closer to the starter that is easier to use? I saw a post where someone said to use the large lug on the alternator, but my lead won't reach over there either.

This is probably such a simple hookup. I'm just nervous about trying things out without knowing. I don't want a simple hookup to turn into a much bigger problem if I short or fry something...which is very much my luck.

 

The battery cable at the starter is constant power

 

I ran a 10ga wire from the clutch safety switch, thru the firewall and mounted a single insulated post. I can clip one on there and the other on the alternator stud. Just a handy way for me to adjust valves. Only use it one time a year, but it makes life much easier.

 

One lead goes to the 0/1 gauge battery cable feed at the solenoid and the other goes to the small post on the solenoid (closest to the fender).
