Also the single starter output wire from most R/S units don't have the current capacity, = 1 burnt out brain.

I've seen a LOT of cracked out things happen from morons just hooking both starter wires up like that without a relay. seen one car come in from another shop that the trans wasn't shifting right even!

years ago a company called Designtech supplied wireing info, a bigbook with wire codes and special wiring scematicsOne of their specific instruction was to join or connect both start wires together on nissan vehicals. Although now this is outdated information I never had a problem doing this. Infact Ihave an old 98 pathfinder wired up this way and it works fine for several years. Now adays most newer starters have programable out puts so its not necassary to do that any more.

Always connect both wires they serve a purpose, if it wasn't needed you think nissan would have bothered. Use a relay and trigger the cold start.

Hurleyloser is right. There is a simple way of testing the second starter wire to see if it needs to be powered up. If it doesn't rest at ground when the key is on it means that it is not connected to anything in the car. If it's not connected to anything in the car it will not need to be powered up. This is the reason that many installers think it works when they connect the two together. If the wire rests at ground, a relay is required to power it up.
