Default Help! I need pictures!!!

When I dropped the driveline out of my '00 FRC, there was a small problem.

The starter wiring never got disconnected. I have since sent the helper into excile (with the execption of the battery cable).

What I have are three (3) wires leading to the starter solenoid plus the battery cable.

The service manuel talks about purple, rust and gray wires. I have two (not rust or gray) with fuseable links and one purple one.

Does anyone have a picture of what this is suspossed to look like.

Help!!!!

Bob K.

The purpose wire goes to one of the small posts on the solenoid.
The other two go behind the red positive cable on the starter The red is on top, but do not remember the order of the others. I do remember they fell into place when put back on.

Default Thats a start!!

My only problem is theat there are no ends on the wires.

I think I might be able to figure it out in the morning.

Thanks corvettedoug,

I don't have pictures, but the manual says the purple wire goes to the "S" terminal on the starter motor and the rust, gray, and red battery terminal wires all go to the starter motor stud. The manual picture is black and white, so no help.
