    gt40 wiring problem

    The starter died in my boat last fall, I changed it out and the relay in a rush due to bad weather. Must have goofed something up though. The ignition light goes on as soon as I connect the battery regardless of weather the ignition switch or ignition fuse is on. The motor starts but then won't turn off because the ignition stays on. I paid attention to make sure the wires were right on double checked with a wiring diagram. This has me stumped. Please help if you have any idea of what to check for.

    The auto parts store employee told me it didn't matter what set of wires is on the top and bottom (unmarked poles) of the relay. It does matter. When viewing the relay with the "I" on the left, the red wires need to be on the bottom. The purple/red-yellow wires need to be on top.
