Hello, I replaced the transmission and clutch in my car, having to remove the entire transmission as a unit to to it, then replaced it. It went fine until I went to install the starter again. I remember taking three wires off, one signal wire and two larger wires from the alt and battery. However, when I went to put it back together, I had an extra large wire.

Just wondering where they all go.

Thanks, Bill

I am not sure why you would have an extra-large wire but if you can get a picture of this then I am sure we can figure out the issue.

Here is a guide that will help with replacing the starter:

I am attaching the wiring diagram which will help with this and the process from the manual on how to replace it. Please run through this info and let us know if you can get some pictures and that will help us identify this wire.

Thanks
