On the safaris it's a wire coming out of fuse loom( main one alt,starter ect). Just hard wire back into it self.

When you pulled the auto out there will have been to looms coming out of the switch on the drivers side of the box. One plug and 5 wires and one has 2. The one that has 2 is the inhibitor. It needs to be looped together. You can shortern it right up as its the wire that essesntually goes from key to starter solinoid.
