We are wirining up our project and need help tracing a wire. Its a 1967 International Scout that we installed a 1993 Dodge Ram 1 ton drive train in.

The wire is attached to the starter relay, and is brown with a yellow stripe. We are tryng to find its source. The solid yellow wire is the ignition, the red wire goes directly to the battery, and the solid brown wire goes directly to the starter solenoid. We cant figure out why the starter will not engage.

Can someone who might know please chime in and assist?

Attached are some pictures. Thanks for any and all help.

Dont have access to a wiring diagram right now, so i will try and wing it. If you jump the red to the brown, the starter should run. With a test light, do you get current flow on the yellow wire with the key turned to the start position? If so, the brown with yellow wire should provide ground for that circuit. I would think the powertrain control module would provide that ground. Are you using the factory pcm? At the very least, try running that brown/yellow wire to ground and see if it cranks.
 
there is a www.ForTrucksOnly.com forum too, that has a few people, actively responding every once in a while, not as active as here... maybe someone there will have a 93 dodge 1 ton wiring schematic... check it out either way... or try www.allpar.com/truck/index.html "might" have something too
