Default quick wiring question here. PLEASE help

I may have mixed up the 2 wires from the fuse box on the strut tower. The 2 wires are about 8-10 gauge i and one of them go to the battery. I just need to make sure which one that is. Is it the one closer to the fire wall or the other one. I think i may need to switch them in the fuse box. PLease help, THANKS

The one closest to the battery goes to the battery. I think the other goes to the alternator. Don't think it matters tho, they seem to be electrically connected in the fuse panel.

i'm pretty sure it's the one closer to the front of the car, not the one closer to the firewall.

hmm, ok. thanks. I'm just having problems starting my car after doing a swap. I thought that might be it. It's kinda strange. I have checked for sprk and then I pulled the fuel rail off to see if i have any pulse and I do but not much. Fuel barely squirts out of the injectors. So I replaced the fuel pump and the same thing happens. Any Ideas of what might cause this?

right now the one closer to the firewall goes to the battery and the starter. The other one goes into the wire harness

i just disconnected these today for my swap. If youre standing on the passenger side looking at the fusebox, the one on the right should go to your positive battery terminal, and the other goes into the harness.
