I am putting my engine harness back after hiding a lot of things and I cant seem to find the cable for the starter. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Some pics would help..
What cable goes to starter??

There is a section of the harness which has a power wire, a small black clip which both go on the starter. On this same section there is a bracket that bolts to the underside of the motor mount. I dont have any pics though..

thanks for the reply. I am going to try and find some pics or see another car because I cant tell from what I have.
Its not that. I just dont know which cable goes to it. There is a cable coming from the starter that says connect to lead.
Is there a positve cable and negative that goes to it?

Starter Cables
There are 2 wires that go to the starter. They are both 12v. There should be a large red cable that comes directly from the 12v on the battery and straight to the one terminal post of the starter with a nut. then you should have another smaller wire which comes from the High current fuse box starter relay. this wire should have a black terminal that plugs into the starter. It is also 12v but not near the amperage that the FAT red wire that comes directly from the battery is pulling. See here is how that works. The fat red wire 12v 30/40 Amps I believe comes directly from the battery. then the other wire comes from the starter relay which is 12v but low amperage and that basically acts as the switch that closes the circuit between the "GROUND" which is the Frame/body of the car (negative from the battery which is grounded directly to the motor to the right of the water pump on a 94/95) once its closed the starter pulls the power from the higher amperage red wire that is connected directly to the battery. Hope this helps
