Hey NIVITO1

There are two cable one that goes from the battery to the block which is on the right lower side of the engine block and an engine ground to chassis that goes from the block to the frame of the car. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know what happens.

So I'm having an issue with my engine not turning. I turn the key and I can hear the starter clicking, dash light don't turn on till after starter stops clicking. Replaced battery and starter and the issue is the same. Car was left in snow last winter. Could this issue be from corrosion/ damage on the engine ground cable?
