– Connect the 6-gauge white wire from the starter/generator, the 18-gauge white wire from the fuel gauge/hour
meter, and the 16-gauge red wire from the voltage regulator to the large post on the solenoid.
See Figure 11-5
– Connect the 6-gauge red wire from the battery terminal and the 10-gauge red wire from the fuse block to the
other large post on the solenoid.
– Connect the 16-gauge blue wire from the key switch to the small post on the solenoid.
– Connect the 18-gauge orange wire from the accelerator pedal limit switch to the other small post on the
solenoid.
Carryall 6, Villager and TransPorter vehicles:
– Connect the 6-gauge white wire from the starter/generator, the 18-gauge white wire from the fuel gauge/hour
meter, and the 16-gauge red wire from the voltage regulator to the large post on the solenoid.
See Figure
11-3, Figure 11-4, Figure 11-7 and Figure 11-8, Page 11-13.
– Connect the 6-gauge red wire from the battery terminal and the 10-gauge red wire from the fuse block to the
other large post on the solenoid.
– Connect the 18-gauge white wire from the voltage regulator and the diode, opposite directional line, to the
small post on the solenoid.
– Connect the 18-gauge orange wire from the accelerator pedal limit switch, the 18-gauge blue wire from the key
switch, the 18-gauge blue wire from the voltage regulator, the 18-gauge orange wire from the (COIL) terminal
on the relay, and the diode, directional end, to the other small post on the solenoid.
3.
Tighten the hex nuts on the large solenoid posts to 55 in-lb (6.2 N·m). Tighten the nuts on the small solenoid
posts to 22 in-lb (2.5 N·m).
4.
Install the snap-on electrical box cover by pressing down firmly on all corners and install the screw, tightening to
18 in-lb (2 N·m).
5.
Connect battery and spark plug wire(s).
