[QUOTE="Iamchris, post: 16234800, member: 21687"] I ran into a small problem putting my car back together yesterday. When I reconnected the battery my starter started to spin, so I disconnected it and took a look. Everything appears normal on the solenoid. I checked clearance between all the wires to ensure that no wires were crossed. I never disconnected wiring during the tear-down, so there was no opportunity to reverse wiring. I disconnected and reconnected all of the wires, checked voltage from the battery, and pulled the solenoid to apply power. When I give it power the spring loaded shaft pulls back into the housing. I looked for a ground on the starter itself that maybe I forgot to reconnect and didnt see anything. There are three wires on the solenoid, one from the starter itself, two external. I didnt pull the starter back off because that top bolt sucks. Any thoughts? My next step is to replace the solenoid but it looks like it isnt a common part and will need to be ordered. Thanks [/QUOTE]
