[Doc Holiday]

Hello, on my 1980 Toyota 4x4 i have a push button start, basicly i turn the key to start and then push the button and it starts,,, well i disconected that cleaning up my wiring and now i put it back to gether, i got one wire that goes from the starter to the push button switch, what do i do with the other wire.... do i conncet the other wire from the battery to the push button switch!!!!



So i have the starter hooked up like this.
I got the BIG GUAGE WIRE connected to the battery to the starter.
Then there is that other wire that is connected to the starter, i have that connected to the pushbutton , now do i get another wire and connected it to the battery to the pushbutton!!!

Any wire that is switched(only hot when the key is on) will be fine.

the human body does not conduct 12 volts very well.  Just wire it up.  You'll be fine.

You wouldn't think that unless you had been on the ocean for a while and had salt spray on you and the battery.

Just hook it up like that and it will be fine so long as you don't let the smoke out.
