Hello, I bought this vehicle without a starter. I am wondering if you have a picture showing where the two wires connect?

How about the ground wire? It clicks but does not spin or engage.

Hello again.

Have you had the starter motor tested to see if it works? The starter is not grounded. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
