Default ok now it really wont start.

ok so i checked all that ground for my car and they are good. checked the starter signal fuse and the car wont crank at all anymore. i also had the starter tested at autozone. it came out good. so now i need to really get into the details of the starter wiring i think. first does anyone know what the little wire does that goes to it. i do have it hooked up but im guessing that is what gives the starter a signal for go time. and then it kicks right. i also think it is just a ground wire. if any one can tell me that would be great thanks.

well i tried grounding the wire and gave power to the wire. and the wire needs power to turn over and it scared the crap out of me sitting all alone in the middle of the street when it sparked.

ok so since im pretty much alone in this thread. i will let everyone who cares know how i got my car to start. i just simply grabed a switch i had lying around and put a wire from the starter signal input signal to the switch and a 12v source on the other side of the switch and turned my car to on position and fliped my fuel pump switch and fliped my starter switch i just made. it all worked out great and i guess i will just run the switch to under my seat untill i figure out what the reall problem is. hahaha or i will just install a s2k strater button
