    Takeuchi TL130 starter question

    Brand new starter, connecting positive and negative cables like a “standard” starter, the pinion gear moves out but doesn’t spin. Is there a different way these are wired on this Takeuchi? Does someone have the wiring diagram available for this starter system?
