I've replaced starter and putting it back together and have a wire that I didn't notice during removal. I believe it attached with the command on the terminal with the battery feed because it was the only nut I removed. It is the same wire end at the battery feed and I'm guessing it is a feed positive feed to the harness; it is heading toward the passenger side and up.

Hi,

Without seeing a picture, you sound correct. Here are the instructions on the starter. It appears they list 4 wires/connections total.

Let me know if you need assistance. If you can submit a picture of this wire, it may help in identifying.

Thanks
