No Start after kiggly shifter mod.

[1SIC1Gb]

So i wired everything up except the wire for 4th into a switch and was going to try it out and my car wont engage the starter. I cut the harness like the picture and connected only the wires needed. I took the black with yellow and connected them into the wire that used to go to the starter butt connector. THen took the black and white and went to the starter(butt connector) .

What am i missing here?

I don't know what mod you are referring to, but it sounds to me like your neutral safety switch isn't wired up correctly.

Probably a bad connection on one of the 2 starter wire connections.

Yea sounds like the neutral safety switch wiring isn't hooked up correctly. It's the small wire that goes to the starter.

I followed this thread. The Neutral safety switch is the yellow and black wire that goes to the top of the starter solenoid and connects with a spade connector right?

It's been a little while since I did this, but black w/ white stripe goes to spade connector on starter and black w/ yellow stripe goes to the wire that used to go to the spade connector on the starter.

You have it backwards. Black/white goes to the starter. Black/yellow goes to the wire side.

The encoder just makes contact between the fat black with white and fat black with yellow wires when in park or neutral. If you used the skinnier wire of the same color scheme, it isn't part of the circuit.

Sorry this isn't super clear in the picture as there are two wires with the same colors. You'll need to use the heavier gauge ones.

Thanks,

Ok . I am using those wires but I used slightly smaller wires so I will upgrade to bigger ones. Was I correct in my first step being to cut all wires off the connector to give me what's in your diagram?

Also would the fact that I don't have the 4th switch wired yet have anything to do with it not working?
Thanks for your help.

The 4th gear switch has nothing to do with it. As long as you used the heavier gauge b/w and b/y wires it should work. You could always just bypass it and hook up the starter directly to the key-out wiring, the worst it will let you do is start while you're in gear.

 

[1SIC1Gb]

So just hook it back up the way it was to bypass the switch?
Meaning the wire from key just install it back on the starter solenoid?

 

[SloRice]

Yes. But like he said, the starter will engage no matter what gear you're in!

I hooked the wire back up just like it was originally to the solenoid and it still doesn't start? Or am I going to have to tuna wire from the ign switch to the starter solenoid directly?
