Default Starter motor wiring.

Because my battery is in the boot i'm a little confused here.

Does the starter wire (+ve) connect straight to the main cable going from the battery to the alternator?

This might help...there is a diagram on pg 12 showing wiring to the starter.

I believe so yes...since there needs to be a big cable between the battery and starter anyway, it makes sense for the alternator to make use of that, rather having a separate run the full length from alternator to battery.
