4age Starter wiring

HI All

I was wondering if anyone can tell me where the extra wire goes to from the 4age starter?

I previouly had a xflow, so have connected the big wire from the starter solenoid to the starter, but now just a little confused where the little wire goes?

many thanks

Neil

Is it for the warning light on the dash?

Are you running a remote solenoid? Ie you're running a solenoid, then the starter? If so, you would have to connect the small wire to the main terminal on the starter.

The toyota starter has an integral solenoid, so to keep it simple, the large terminal would be your battery power, the small terminal (typically has a black plastic surround) is the lead from either your starter switch or the "start" position on your iginition switch.
