The main battery cable (red in color) will mount onto the large stud on the back of the starter solenoid. Piggybacked along with the main battery cable is the alternator wire (orange in color) Both wires are held on by a 13mm brass nut. The last wire which is purple in color mounts to the small stud on the solenoid, and is held on by a 9mm or 10mm nut.
How do the starter wires go on a 95 sunfire2.2 engine
where do the wires on the starter go on a 1977 pontiac 400
I am currently having the same issue. First unhook the battery completely. Then you need to find where the wires on the starter are connected to the battery. Detach the wires from the starter that go to the battery. Once you have the starter wires completely detached from battery you can start removal of starter from engine block.
the solenoid is on the starter. It's the part the wires go into.
The starter needs a large wire from the battery and a wire from the starter switch. These are connected to the solenoid that is attached to the starter.
its located where the tranny bolts up to the motor. disconnect the three wires from the starter, then take the three bolts out of the starter and pull it out. just remember where the wires go!!
The Starter relay for Acclaims are located right on the starter, its what the wires that go to the starter hooks to.
Look to the front left of the engine where the transmission mounts to it, you will see the starter there and it has several large wires bolted to it. Remove those wires ( after you have disconnected the battery ) and then remove the two bolts holding the starter on, replace with the new one and reconnect the wires, then reconnect the battery and off you go.
you disconnect neg. side of battrey and then raise the truck and some times over the th rt front over the tire you can get to the wires to disconnect if not go under car and look at starter should be able to acess the wires only 2 of them then take the 2 mounting bolts for starter, remove them and then sneak the starter out it will be alittle tight to do so take your time. there might be a shim between starter and engine if so must use it with new starter unless the new starter may say no shim needed, would be printed on the head of starter. if no shim install with no shim. when installing and you connecting wires be sure that wires are not! touching together if not sure when you go to connect battery it will spark badleyand starter will engauge at that point leave battery disconneted double check wires at starter.
Un-Hook battery- Unhook wires off old starter. (should be 3 wires ) some are 4 If unable to access wires take starter off first and then take off wires, Unbolt starter- will slide forward towards front of vechicle- and replace new starter everything vise-versa-- Don't worry because their is No way to put it in wrong because it will only GO in (1) way.. Note: U may want to mark your wires- so that you know where to place them when you put the new starter in.
3 bolts on starter, pull ,remove wires from start insert new starter and reattach wires and bolt into transmission
The wires to the starter are probably connected wrong.
