Starter solenoid, typical position for Fomoco cars.
The battery for a 2005 Chevy Cobalt is located in the trunk. It can be found in a compartment beside the spare tire on the driver's side of the trunk.
First make sure that this battery has a charge. Check its volts. Then if the battery is good, make sure the conectionns are clean. Then clean the connection to the starter relay ( solenoid ) just beside the battery. Then if needed, clean the conx. at the starter. If all the conx. are good, and still no start, jump the positive battery conx. at the starter relay to one of the small plug in conx. If the starter engages, then possible bad ign. switch. Hope something works. Good luck.
GM usually uses a combination solenoid/switch/relay located beside the starter. One end engages the starter. The other end connects the battery to the starter motor.
