azmichael1 Posted August 25, 2011 Report Posted August 25, 2011 After spending a few months refurbishing everything in the engine compartment of my 6 volt '48 p-15, I put the battery in today and as soon as I connected the battery the engine started turning over without the key on or the starter button being pushed.since there are three posts on the solenoid I am guessing that I installed wiring incorrectly and that the solenoid and/or starter button are basically being bypassed causing the starter to get direct current from the battery................can anyone here help me figure out what wires go to/from the solenoid switch so that I can correct this problem ? Thanks ! Mike '48 Plymouth p-15 Apache Junction, Az. Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted August 25, 2011 Report Posted August 25, 2011 lift the small control wire off the soleniod..if it still does this..you have a shorted solenoid..if it stops..then find out why you have voltage on the small control wire Quote
