ignition problems!!!
hey I'm new to the site and I need some help. I've got a 98civic, I bought push button ignition for it and can't figure out where the wiring goes. I know which wire goes where but there are 2 black wires that connect somewhere (not the ground wire) and I can't read the instructions cause there are in chinese or something. Please help!!!!

Re: ignition problems!!! (98civicR)
Hmm.. Well I don't have the starting wiring diagram with me... But maybe this might help.. I haven't really looked at a starter lately.. But here's something I know will work on almost every car. Connect one wire to the battery and another wire to the S terminal on the solenoid. The S terminal is where power comes from the ignition switch to the starter.
Batt-------Switch------S terminal
That should start it right up. It would be a whole lot easier to understand this if you knew how a starter works internally. I'm not sure if you know or not.. But here goes.. By connecting power to the S terminal on the solenoid you activate the solenoid which then takes power from the battery and sends it to the starter.. Hope that helps..
