on the starter/solenoid,there is a heavy cable coming from battery.also there is a smaller wire. using a screw driver, u need to make a contact between these two wires. generally the smaller wire is a push on connection and will need to be slid back a little to enable contactof bare metal on the conector.remember to push wire back when started. if little wire has a nut securing it just make contact between that and the heavy terminal.also MAKE SURE VEHICLE IS IN PARK,OR NEUTRAL AND PARK BRAKE APPLIED.ignition switch must be turned on to start. There usually is a lot of sparks and you don't want to leave the connection too long, maybe a couple seconds, or else you will never be able to have the screwdriver back (It will weld it there)
