I have a 48' big bolt that had a positive battery cable attached to the frame and a negative cable to the starter with solenoid. The coil is connected with negative. I found a foot starter at a salvage yard from a truck just like mine in every way except the starter was connected with a positive battery cable. Was my truck wired wrong or the one in the salvage yard? | | | | | Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 Extreme Gabster | | Extreme Gabster Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 | "48 big bolt" doesn't tell us much about what you have. If yours is a GMC it came with positive ground. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 103 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 103 | sorry cletis,
