I thought they all are like that, (the starter motor wired via the solenoid, not the other way around) unless theres been some new developments.
There should be the main heavy power line from the battery, straight to the starters solenoid and a smaller ignition wire that operates the solenoid.
A simple eyeball of it will tell you watchdog. There should be a very heavy cable going from the solenoid into the main casing for the starter, thats the line that the main power travels down to turn the starter motor when the solenoid energizes.
What the problem watchdog, starter not working?
newer models
older models;
Looks like the same thing, main power from the battery to the solenoid, after contact inside the solenoid via the small wire (ignition key barrel), power through to the main motor.
Edit; did you mean, does the main power going to the ignition barrel and returning to the starter come from the main positive terminal of the starter? Maybe i miss understood the question your asking?
