Now that the accessories have been located, find the wire
suspected to be the starter wire according to the web information
on your vehicle. Place the red lead of your meter on the wire.
With the key in the off position the meter should read 0.00 volts
and will stay at 0.00 volts in all key positions except the crank
position. In the crank position your meter should read between
10.00 volts and 13.00 volts, and will drop back to 0.00 volts
when the starter disengages.
Once you locate the starter wire, cut the wire in half and try to
start the vehicle. If the vehicle does not start, the correct wire has
been identified. Reconnect the starter wire while soldering the
thick VIOLET wire off the relay satellite pack to it and cover the
connection with electrical tape.

ble bodily injury. Failure to properly install these wires may
