The starter motor requires a lot of power so you need to have a solonoid wired into it and set it so your ignition button activates the solonoid. Otherwise your not going to have enough power to the starter motor and eventually burn out the ignition switch and its wires. + -------Solonoid==============Ignition Button \____Starter Motor _____ / / _ ---------- Thats Hot to Solonoid negetive to starter motors negetive post. Hot from solonoid to positive terminal for starter motor. And two wires one on each side of the switch from solonoid to the ignition switch. Typically you need an ignition switch that has off/on/run.
