Looks like you found it. Is the plate that the wires are soldered to loose?

One thing on ground wire, Yes the main ground does mount at the bottom of the strut tower, even though it is not shown in the FSM. The other end should be on the bell housing bolt just above the starter.

yup thats right rx4ur7. but the ign switch it got lacks the L and E points and wires.. this is from a 90 vert? WTF ?! im still trying to figure out what L and E wires go to and what they do. any ideas ?I looked in the FSM and wiring digrams but its not showing what they go to? maybe something unimportant, the vert i got it from turned on and ran with no problems.

another thing my voltage meter says 12.50 volts and the gauge in the car say less than a little over 12. ( this is with the ign. in the on position) what is that related to? It doesnt look right. do you think the gauge has gone bad? I know and read that the gauge can be inaccurate, but that bad?
