Where is the starter located?My car will not start and the guy that did my swap told me that there is a gray wire that keeps comming out of a tab?

So he said stick it back in.It's above the starter around some coil thing.

Anyone know where that is?

Its the solenoid on the starter. Sometime if you tug on it instead of releasing the clip you damage the clip on the lower harness so it won't stay connected. When it falls off the car won't start so you have to reconnect it. You can get a new plug that is good and solder it on there.
