I have a '55 President with Borg Warner auto tranny. Starting total rewire of the car. Have viewed several sources for the wiring diagrams including the service manual, etc. and all show the same wiring for the particular area I am currently reworking. From the starter solenoid on the firewall, there are the two big cables to the starter motor and the battery negative terminal. And the wiring diagram is consistent with the NUMBER of smaller wires I have on my solenoid, but not the destination and wire color.
10 gage Red wire seems to be consistent with going to the ammeter
#1 question: 10 gage Black wire I do not not know where it was connected on my car and all the wiring diagrams show it goes to an overdrive relay, but since this is the auto tranny, the OD relay does not exist. I need to know where this rather long (about 3-4 feet) black wire goes from the solenoid.
#2 question: the wiring diagram shows a red & white wire going to the ignition switch; why my wire (that appears original up into the taped harness)is yellow is unknown, but I assume this is indeed the wire to the ignition switch (looks like a 16 gage wire).
Thanks for the help. This car has a LONG way to go.
