Yes, it is built on the 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.
The Amperage draw is so high it locks the starter solenoid. This can be because of a bad starter bushing, low voltage in the battery, timing, etc. It is a major engineering defect in the design. All Fords prior to 1992 have this flaw. It can result in a fire, dead battery, etc. The good news is Ford redesigned their starters in 1992. The new starters will fit the old engines and Ford sells a retrofit kit to rewire the Solenoid for the new starter. The way it corrects the problem is the old solenoid becomes a starter relay, with the output wire now going to a solenoid mounted on the new starter. (This gives you less of a voltage drop at the new solenoid vs the old solenoid, that solves the problem in most cases) You need to buy the kit from Ford (Under $20.00) but you can buy the starter anywhere. Just give them your vehicle information as if you owned a 1993 Ford when buying the starter. You can also get a rebuilt starter from Ford. You could make your own kit, but the Ford Kit is everything you need and comes with instructions (priceless). Warprunner
fault starter/cable, faulty solenoid, faulty wiring harness, or undercharged battery.
Remove the starter assembly from the engine compartment. To do this you disconect the neg battery cable.Remove air intake duct and the air cleaner housing assembly from the engine compartment. Disconnect the battery cable and the solenoid terminal from the starter solenoid and remove the mounting bolts. - Remove the electrical connector from the solenoid lower terminal. Remove the solenoid mounting screws and separated the solenoid from the starter body. Installation is the reverse. This answer is from my Haynes manual. Hope it helps
Depending On which solenoid if it is a starter solenoid there is one on the inner fender and one on the starter the one on the inner fender is changed by disconnecting the battery then removing the wires making sure to know where they go when you put the new one on then unbolt it and bolt the new one in the same way in reverse if it is the one on the starter however your best bet is to replace the starter completely it is more ecconomical in the long term of your vehicle Depending On which solenoid if it is a starter solenoid there is one on the inner fender and one on the starter the one on the inner fender is changed by disconnecting the battery then removing the wires making sure to know where they go when you put the new one on then unbolt it and bolt the new one in the same way in reverse if it is the one on the starter however your best bet is to replace the starter completely it is more ecconomical in the long term of your vehicle
Front of the engine, behind the engine mount.
The solenoid is on the starter.
The solenoid is on the starter.
The starter solenoid is on the starter itself..
Is there a picture of a Starter Solenoid for a Oldsmobile 1992
HUH? Starter solenoid is on the STARTER???
The starter solenoid is attached to the starter.
How do you change the fuel filter on a 1992 Chrysler New Yorker? Do you need a special tool to remove the quick disconnect? How do you change the fuel filter on a 1992 Chrysler New Yorker? Do you need a special tool to remove the quick disconnect?

Yes.
