I bought my 1992 745 from 15A a few years back. It suffers from an intermittent no crank, especially when temperatures are warmer. I can always jump the starter to get it to crank, so it never leaves me stranded. But, I'm getting tired of being ghetto on an otherwise decent car (never mind the hanging interior light, that is an acceptable level of ghetto at the moment).
The connection at the starter solenoid is fine. When I checked for voltage at the starter solenoid during a no crank condition, I find less than 8volts and the starter won't crank.
So, I looked up the wiring diagrams and found that the blue wire with the green tracer goes to the connector at the left strut tower. I opened the 8-pin connector (blue / green wire in one of the corner positions) and the connector is clean and tight (I'll have to bring my multi-meter back to NY on my next trip). So, I would like to check the connections at the "4-pole connector, electrical distribution unit". I'm not sure where that is, but that is what is described on the wiring diagram.
Can anyone steer me in the right direction?
Here is the wiring diagram I am referring to:

The starter motor is #9 and on the right side of the diagram. The solenoid wire goes through connector C, then A, and then F. Like I said, I checked connector A. I am going back outside to look around the left wheel housing for connector C. I figured that I'd ask about where connector F would be located before I went back outside.
Thanks in advance for any helpful and / or humorous responses!
