Want this question answered?
There is no ground wire. The casing of the starter itself is considered the ground. Ex. If you take a battery and use jumper cables to touch the positive lead to the wire terminal on the starter, and then touch the negative terminal to the metal casing it will spin the motor.
The Chevy starter does not have a ground wire, the starter grounds through the starter casing.
No, the starter casing acts as the ground.
there is no ground wire it is grounded through the case
If the starter and battery are good then it has to be the wiring. What I have seen many times is the ground wire to the frame of the car is the problem, Be it loose or disconnected it would stop the motor from turning over. So check that the smaller of the black wires,coming from the battery,is connected good to the frame of the car and the larger of the black wires has a good connection to the motor. Another wire you would want to check,is the one comming from the key switch and going to the starter relay.If the wire is broken or has no power comming out of it the starter will not turn. So remember, for the start to turn,you need to have a good ground for the stater housing,power to big red starter wire and power on smaller wire going to the starter relay.

Could be a defective starter motor, or broken ground wire.
Follow the positive (+) wire from the battery it goes straight on to the starter motor.
There is no ground wire from the starter. You should have one large wire from the positive battery post that connects to the large stud on the starter solenoid and one small wire that attaches to the small stud on the starter solenoid.
the hot wire goes to the starter and the ground wire bolts to the engine block.
two bolts on the starter motor and a plastic bracket covering the starter motor unscrew big wire nut and there is also a small wire to unscrew makesure negative wire to the battery is off
Yes
Follow the ground wire from the battery. The ground wire from the battery goes right into the starter/connected to the starter. Passenger side of the engine compartment under the engine.
