[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 199660, member: 3278"] What do you mean "the ignition caps" ? The solenoid has zero to do with the engine ignition system, only cranking. The red/yellow wire supplies 12V to energize the solenoid and allow 12V from the battery, through the solenoid, to the starter. That red/yellow lead passes from the back side of the key switch through your control box and hooks to a neutral safety switch which must be closed in the neutral position to allow 12V to reach the solenoid when the key is turned to the start position.
