Well, there is usually a red wire that is small, a black wire that is small, and two large battery cables. First, disconnect the battery. Then hook the positive cable from the battery to the top of the solenoid on the left looking at it with the other small connecting point facing you also. Then hook the other red positive cable going to the starter to the other top post of the solenoid. Then the red wire from the ignition switch, which should have an inline fuse hooks to the small connection on the front. Then the black small wire will go onto the mounting bolt that holds the solenoid to the frame of the unit. If you have more connections (4 instead of 3) let me know.
