The ignition wire color code is a standard used by automotive manufacturers to identify the different wires in an ignition system. The following table lists the most common ignition wire colors and their corresponding functions:
* Red: Battery power
* Black: Ground
* Yellow: Starter solenoid
* White: Ignition switch
* Blue: Distributor
* Green: Tachometer
* Orange: Fuel injector
* Purple: Ignition coil
* Brown: Engine control unit (ECU)
Starter Wire
The starter wire is the wire that connects the battery to the starter solenoid. When the ignition key is turned to the "start" position, the starter solenoid is energized and the starter motor is engaged with the flywheel. The starter motor then cranks the engine until it starts.
The starter wire is typically red in color and is located near the battery. It is important to make sure that the starter wire is properly connected and not damaged, as a loose or damaged starter wire can prevent the engine from starting.
