gotta rewire my starter, but it's been over a year since i took it off, so i forgot how many connections go to the strarter, and which connections go where. i've searched a whole lot on the forum for how to rewire the starter, and found this link:

1) so i guess there are 2 connections to the starter--the positive wire from the battery, and a harness connector plug, right? or is there more than 2 things connected to the starter?

2) where do i connect the positive cable to? here is a pic of one of my starters below, can someone tell me which terminal I connect the cable to, and what connects to the other terminal?

nvm i think i found the answer. the positive wire connects to the left terminal in the pic, and the right terminal on the solenoid connects to the starter (i don't think anything else connects to it, though someone could correct me if i'm wrong). gotta get under the car and figure out where the harness connector is for the plug in the pic...

In your pic, the big wire with the loose nut on the left goes to battery + The little wire when powered from the positive side of the battery makes starter turn over (key usually)

The other big terminal is already connected as it should be, just make sure the nut is tight.
