Wiring must be performed with the specified electric wire. Thick, short wiring should be used to connect
the battery to the starter. Using wire other than that specified may cause troubles.
The overall length of the wire between the battery (+) terminal and the starter (B) terminal, and between
the battery (-) terminal and the starter (E) terminal, should be determined according to the following
table.
Note :
Excessive resistance in the key switch circuit (between the battery and start [S] terminals) can cause
improper pinion engagement. To prevent this, follow the wiring diagram carefully.
