I have a reman starter that I have installed in my car. I have the negative wire back where I know it was but I have two red wires to connect back to the solenoid. One is big like the negative wire, one is small. I'm not sure which pole on the solenoid is home for each. Can you match big and small wires with outside and inside poles on the solenoid, please?

The heavy red wire goes on the large post of the starter B. If the small red has a large lug on it, it also goes to the large post B. If the small wire is white/pink, it goes to term S.
