starter problems on 02 Pontiac grand am. Remove battery and take to napa or most any parts store. They will check battery for you. The starter and selonoid are combined so they must be considered a single component. Iff you know your battery is good next follow the ground wire from battery to make sure it has solid connection to vehicle with no corrosion to hamper connection. Also make sure battery cables are clean and tight. Is your fuse blown? When you attempt to start if it makes a grinding or whirring noise it is most likely the starter. If it does nothing see if your interior light seems to din or flicker when you attempt to start then (most likely) bad starter. Starters can be removed and rebuilt if replacement at retail is extremely high

Can a starter solenoid drain a battery?

Yes, a starter solenoid can drain a battery. When a starter solenoid is not working properly it can actually keep rotating the starter after the car's ignition is turned off. Since it requires a battery to actuate the starter, the battery will eventually be drained of power.

Have a 1992 Dodge Ram 50 When you turn the key the lights on the dash come on but the starter does nothing you have had the Battery tested the starter tested you have replaced the ECM and Starter?

You should locate and test the solenoid. Most have three connections. There is a large cable from the battery to the solenoid, from the solenoid to the starter and from the start switch to the solenoid. The power terminals to the battery and the starter are large and have large cables. The starter switch connection is much smaller. Turning the key to 'start' provides a low current voltage to the solenoid causing the solenoid relay to close and power from the battery cable to connect through to the starter. If that voltage is present then the solenoid or the wiring between the solenoid and battery or solenoid and starter is suspect. If that voltage is missing then the starter switch or solenoid feed line may have failed.

Assuming you are referring to the starter solenoid, the easiest way to find it is by folowing the positive battery cable from the battery. The cable goes from the battery to the solenoid and then continues from the solenoid to the starter.
