I have included an image of the connector. I have clipped the electrical wire that was connected to the starter.
The part that appears to separate from the connector is the visible part with the red and white wire entering it.
It looks ragged because I have been trying to get it appart with...
I have a 2000 Mercury Villager. It has a tranverse V6 engine.
I need to replace the starter. It should be a no brainer. BUT:
There is a connection to the solenoid that is not part of the main
battery current connection.
This connection has a connector that is designed like a Chinese
puzzle...
