How do you reach the solenoid wires to take meter reading or if necessary to remove them before removing the starter unit? this is a 1989 5L Silverado. I can easily get to the two main bolts that secure starter to bell housing, but from under the truck I can not see the solenoid let along reach it. Can solenoid be reached from wheel well if small flexible cover is removed or do I have to remove the inside metal wheel/fender unit (WOW)? Installed a new battery, but when ignition key is turned to start, I do not hear anything and assume problem is solenoid. NO dimming of lights when key is turned to start.
