There should be one large post with a heavy wire connected to it that goes
into the starter itself, you want to connect the battery cable and brown
wires to the other large post. It should be the post farthest from the
starter. If you hook it to the terminal that the starter is hooked to, your
starter will run continuously until something burns up (bad)
