[QUOTE="Raja_Mongkut, post: 696236, member: 7413"] External Starter Solenoid? I was tinkering about the engine bay at 4am(I know, right?) and came across a rogue wire creeping out from the fuse box. Traced it to a weird looking component sitting on the passenger side of the engine bay, bearing the markings Lucas England and 4ST. Googling revealed it to be a starter solenoid.

Seems weird that the PO would go thru the hassle of tinkering with the fusebox to add an external solenoid even if the old solenoid was fried. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
