Starter Solenoid Wire HELP

Hey all as some of you know I am tracing a problem with no voltage getting to my solenoid. I have traced the wire all the way back to the back seat Where does this thing go from there??? Anybody know. It has to get to the ignition switch at some point.


Thanks guys

Brian

To the back seat???? I think you're following the wrong purple wire....that one will be for the rear defroster grid on the hatch glass. If you have a manual trans, it goes to a switch operated by the clutch pedal; it will go to the shifter on an automatic. In either case, it then becomes a yellow wire which you will have to follow...to the ignition switch on the column.
Hope this helps....

Pete
