a). Find the wire from the starter solenoid, (usually located on the starter) and going to the ignition switch.
b). When found, use voltmeter, connect one probe of the voltmeter to ground and connect the other end of
the probe to the starter wire, it should receive "12 Volts" only when the ignition key in the "START"
position.
c). After locating the correct wire, cut it in half, try to start the vehicle. The engine should not "crank over".
d). When the extend wires are needed, they must be exactly same gauge as the cut wire. Connect the cut
wire from the key switch to the RED wire (pin #30) of the relay, and connect the starter wire to the
WHITE wire (pin #87a ) of the relay.
