If you have the negative cable bolted to the block and the positive cable to the stud on the solenoid, you better hear some noise out of the starter when voltage hits the S terminal. If not pull it off, it's worthless.

Re: starter no crank and no click help!!!

well I figured it out. it wasn't making any noise at all. the test light did come on on the s terminal when turned ignition over but it wasn't very bright. I did not have enogh voltage. I found the battery was low so I chaged it and I not only have nise but it cranks now. thanks
