It goes to the positive side of the starter relay.

good, point, but doesn't one of the wires from the fuse box go to the selenoid, and the other to the pos batt?

check the voltage on your battery without charger on make sure your battery isnt junk, and also make sure you battery is grounded properly, was the wiring all tampered with?

run through your wiring, if everythings good you either have 1. a dead battery, or 2. a bad selenoid, when i had this problem on my 400ex it was problem #2

sometimes you can take the solenoid apart and clean it up and put some white grease to keep water away, makes it last longer

It looks like he has it right, its on the solinoid and the wire to the solinoid comes off the positive side of battery,I think if he swaps it he will blow fuse?
