I recently bought a 1989 Accord LX-i coupe 5spd from a used car lot after two days it stalled and wouldn't start, so I diagnosed the problem and replaced the ignition switch and it worked! I've replaced the spark plug wires and plugs with NGK after repairing a stripped spark plug and I've run into two more issues! I found a RED/BLACK wire that splits off from another harness that might connect to the starter, but I can't find anything it connects to! The harness runs behind the engine and below it, and if my awesome paint skills aren't enough I'm uploading photos.

Thank you!

I also can't seem to find where this wire connects, I recently put my engine back in (A20A3) and cant find a spot for this. I deleted power steering, and ac I'd that makes a difference. Also when I turn the key nothing happens, the light on the dash come on but no crank or anything.. if I jump the starter the car starts right up, I'm thinking it has something to do with this connection maybe. Will upload pictures tonight
