View the terminal on the starter switch as an extention of the negative post and not as part of the starter. Other than a common ground the 2 systems are completely seperate until the switch is depressed. No current flows through the starter until the switch is depressed. Some people have a hard time with electricity and refer it all as PFM. Rod
