Re: Starter switch at solenoid

are you using a remote starterswitch? Is this what your refering too? If so the red goes to the lead on the solenois Big red wire conested the other should go the the terminal with the terminal with the S for Starter

With the key off you'll get no spark and therefore no signal to your light. With the key on you'll have spark and therefore want to ground your leads.
