Hi Guy's help needed again Rolling Eyes
Having disconnected and re terminated the connections to the starter motor solenoid I'm no faced with a starter motor that won't turn, starter motor works fine but the primary start circuit is not pulling in the solenoid. Having tried with no luck to find a diagram or picture on the my net my question is, has anybody on here got a picture of the wiring connection - terminations of the solenoid or a diagram l can follow.
Help much appreciated
Regards
Chris

Holding the solenoid with the main terminals at the front, the cable from the positive terminal of the battery connects to the right hand terminal. Immediately behind that goes the green wire and behind that the orange wire. On the left, immediately behind the cable to the starter goes the black wire. The 4th terminal in the connector block is not used. I assume you’ve replaced the solenoid, as newer ones are wired differently to the originals and the wiring diagram is not much help here, as it only shows 2 wires marked L (lilac?) and RW (red & white?). Make sure you’ve got a good fuse in there.
