Re: Wiring help needed
Hmmm, I'm not sure what you mean? why would you need a pull cable? IDK?
Once the solenoid is installed you can use any switch, including the floor switch... button, toggle... etc? Pull cable off the floor switch??? Any switch will do. Last edited by Tinker; 11-25-2018 at 11:22 PM. |

Re: Wiring help needed
you can still buy tractor 6 volt solenoids from most supply depots. they have a coil 6 volt 4th pole "full start" also. The button start solenoid is only good if you want to start under hood, which only works if the ignition is on in the car.

I have the switch and solenoid, Borg Warner p/n S53 which is equivalent to the early Ford with the bump switch on the bottom. Now need to research cable size for both ground and leads to solenoid and starter. Thanks to all that contributed once again. |

Re: Wiring help needed
Start by checking the starter solenoid, jumper the center terminal to ground. That should turn the starter over, if it doesn't then there is some issue with the solenoid itself. If that works ok, then check the wiring to the pull solenoid, and then the pull solenoid itself. The pull solenoid should show a path to ground when the cable is pulled. Lot of possible for issues here. Is the pull cable moving the solenoid plunger far enough to engage the contacts? This whole set up is just providing a ground path to the starter solenoid, just start at the starter solenoid and work your way back.

Re: Wiring help needed
Also make sure you have the cable from the battery on the correct side of the solenoid.

Re: Wiring help needed
Since both the fours and V8 are, strictly speaking, flatheads, you might not have misled some of the responders into thinking that you have a four (implied in your initial question and original in all but a handful of late '32 pickups) if you had initially provided the information about your V8 transplant as you finally did in #18.

Re: Wiring help needed
Have you tried a ground jumper to the center terminal? That will tell you if the starter solenoid is connected up correctly and if it is working.
