ok so i have a few minor issues i have been coming across now that I installed a new motor, one was a broken negative terminal which I just replaced with a new cable. But when I connected the battery, which this is coming from the relay box, I get a weird buzzing. I disconnected the battery and the harness to the relay box, waited and then reconnected both and the noise was gone. Then I ended up starting up the car and after I turned her off the noise was there once again. I have the car pretty much wired up the only thing I can find that I cant seem to find where it goes is a very little ground terminal that comes off the harness right next to starter/alternator. I dont know if that has something to do with the buzzing but I do know that its the EGI relay that keeps on buzzing. I ended up removing the relay while the buzzing was happening and came to determine it was coming from there, or is being caused there. I replaced the relay already and the new one does the same thing. Any help would be appreciated on where to start to look

I also am having a slight problem with the taillights staying on.


to note the ground cable I bought was a 4 gauge, will this have any effect on anything. I noticed this thread had some useful information that I was looking over/ referenced

Found out the issue and was the ground for the alternator, no more buzzing thank god, though only every now and then when I try to start the car it only makes two clicks and thats it. I redecel and push in the clutch and it will start every few tries

pictures of the ones I cleaned to make sure the grounds are clean and the one wire where I have no idea where to ground it at, I also didnt include one of the grounds I did clean right above the upper radiator hose........... and the EGI buzzing on is the one on the upper left of the relay box.

Your getting to much power to the relay. Do you have anything wired to the ignition switch?

I got the ground figured out and that solved the EGI Buzzing Issue. It just has the click noise with no turn over every 4/5 attempts it seems. I may replace the starter and then go from there to see if its that is maybe a cause. Also the tail light is a bit of a problem as well. Im going to go look into whether it is the brake or tail light and ill work from there but im still curious as to why either would stay on....

It is a stock KADE set up nothing special or out of the ordinary

Just want to update this post. Found out the plastic/rubber pieces to the pedals on the clutch and brake were broken off.
