Battery ground goes from the battery, to the chassis left fender area then to the starters outboard attach bolt.

starter schematics for 89-92

It's pretty straightforward to see the setup in the car from this diagram (just follow the big wires from the batt)

no starter relay, sorry

Do you mean the starter kill relay???

On the drivers side near the clutch master, bolted to the sidewall.

HAILERS

Starter kill relay??????? They forgot to put that on my schematics. You got one that shows the *starter kill relay*?

HAILERS

Pardon my ignorance. The cars with theft protection do have one. The cars without have a jumper to replace the relay. Mines next to the trail coil assy

HAILERS

So, does your car have theft protection or not?

Icemark

only 86's don't have the wiring for security

HAILERS

That was a 87 schematic I attached. I shoulda said something about that.......but I did just now look at the 89 electrical and it has a starter cut relay also.

If the car did not come with theft protection, the relay won't be there, but in its place will be a jumper in the harness where the relay would have been. Usually blue in color. A great place to install a remote start switch for maintanence.

It's a slow day, what more can I say.
