Starter issues ‘94

Where does the exciter wire come from on the ‘94? What relay do you use? Where do you put it?

I'll try. I'm exhausted. So forgive me if I'm not clear.

You can go with everything Doug posted.

I mounted the relay at the load center on the passenger side firewall.

I had earlier added a 70 amp circuit breaker and heavier wire to feed the load center.

I got a roll of purple high temp 10 ga wire to stay color coded for exciter wire. I could mail you a piece, if you wish.

I left the exciter wire where it was and ran from there, up to the relay and back down again.

I have a pair of crimpers for the spade connectors for the relay.

There may be better crimpers out there.
The crimpers I have save time over the way I used to crimp the uninsured connectors.

You will also want a tool for removing relay connectors from the mountable relay sockets

A little flat screwdriver for eyeglasses will work. The blade needs to be about the same width as the little tabs that hold the connectors in the relay socket.
