Can a low battery cause starter not to engage?
Yes. Without sufficient charge, the starter will not have enough amperage to crank.
Could your starter cause your battery not to charge?
No, a starter cannot cause a battery to fail to charge. It could cause the battery to discharge quickly.
How do you get power to the starter?
The positive battery cable connects directly to the starter. Depending on what type of vehicle it is, the solenoid is either on the starter or on the inner fender. Power for the solenoid comes from the ignition switch. You can run a wire to the solenoid to cause the starter to engage.

Why does energizing the starter solenoid cause a dead short on the battery and is there any circuit protection - 1982 Buick Regal?
No,there is no circuit protection between the battery and the starter. If the starter is causing a dead short to ground, there is definitely something wrong with the starter. Pull it and have it checked. The switch that engages the high current is inside the starter. If the starter is fried and perhaps something melted to ground, every time you engage it you will get a dead short.
Can a damaged car battery cause a starter issue?
