[DML] Starter run on.

["Stephen Jaeger" <sjaeger@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I thought I had figured out that my starter run on problem was the starter solenoid and or starter. But after installing a new starter, I still have the problem. Here is a summary of events.

- I changed the exhaust manifold a few months ago. While removing and installing the starter, I broke a resister looking component that was in the blue-yellow wire connected to the solenoid. I didn't see this thing on the wiring diagram so I left it out. I ran the car for a few weeks without a problem. Oh ya, did I mention that the run on problem only occurs on a warm re-start of the car, not at the cold start. So I might not have tried a warm start during this time.
- Then I tackled the steering column bushing which meant removing the steering column, ignition switch, etc.
- After I got everything back together, I had the run on problems begin.
- I did the starter relay test i.e., while the run on was occurring, I removed the relay and the starter run on continued. So ah ha, I concluded that it was not the ignition switch or relay but had to be the starter or solenoid. 

But as mention above, a new started and solenoid did not solve the problem. Any help on where to go from here would be appreciated.

Anyone know what the resister in the blue-yellow wire might have been for?
