which wire goes where on a starter solenoid for a 78' jeep 401 v8 wagoneer?

Question

on this solenoid there are two letters and two posts when you turn key on wipers work but wont start and it has a new starter its difficult because i dont know where coil wire should go or how it should be hooked up same with ground and positive cables to battery but the coil gets hot when key is on also .

Answer 1

Well, the post that kicks the starter drive when it has 12 volts applied is the one that needs to be tied to the wire that shows voltage when the key is turned to the position that turns the starter. Test for this wire with a test light. Good luck.
