Starter Wires To What Terminals??

What wires to the starter solenoid go to which terminals??

[When the little "clip" is at the bottom of the solenoid]
I have the one with a rubber boot on the right, and the one coming off the starter motor on the left.

Now where does that one coming from the top of the engine bay go?
I heard this is a ground wire, but I can not figure out where it goes??

I will either just get a "CLICK" (after reconnecting the battery) or nothing at all, and I can't get anything at all when turning the key.

Oh, this is a brand new solenoid by the way, and the starter was tested as good at AutoZone.

Anyone have pictures, or does anyone know where to put that stupid ground wire?

The starter (and solenoid) grounds through the body itself.&nbsp The (two) wires are powered.&nbsp The thick one goes to the battery, and the thin one goes to the starter switch.
