Power at the battery cable, solenoid closes, but no power across the solenoid. The only thing I have changed is the solenoid and reconnected the factory ground wire but Im still getting the same issue. ĭoes the wire I mentioned ground the solenoid? If not, where did it conect and how does hat solenoid function without a direct ground? Electrical gives me headaches as it is but this whole solenoid business keeps me in a bottle of Advil. This is the closest breakdown I have found but it doesnt show the mount or the wire. Ive looked for diagrams and breakdowns but I havent found one that shows that wire or anything with an explanation on solenoid grounding.

I do have a short piece of black wire (about 3") that was attached to the starter mount, but its been disconnected for so long I cant remember what the other end was connected to. Now I can afford to do it right but before I spend money on the solenoid and wait on shipping I want to make sure I get everything I need all in one shipment.

Naturally, I had to add a ground wire to get it to work. Now Im looking at putting a new solenoid on it but I cant remember how the original solenoid got its ground.īefore the starter went to pieces I had put a Ford solenoid on it since it was about half the price of the same thing in marine grade. Got this shiny new starter on it but the solenoid that I jury-rigged a couple of years before the previous starter literally fell apart on me has also taken a dump. I finally got tired of rope burns and sore shoulders so Ive replaced the starter. I have an '81 Evinrude 35 with electric start that I have been pull starting for the last 4 or 5 years.
