Two spade connectors on starter
I have a recon starter to fit but it has two spade connectors, the current one only has one, does anyone know which one I should use for the existing connection? Thanks Mark

Main spade, the bigger one (terminal 50)is the trigger wire.
The other auxiliary (often terminal 15a or 50b) would be used for things such as a cold start, or a ballast resistor bypass etc.
So just use the bigger one, leave the other disconnected.
