Usually two voltage circuits to the starter solenoid. The largest terminal should the cable that comes from battery. A smaller cable, although still big, with insulation on it, is the starter field terminal, goes into the starter motor body.
There should be a smaller terminal, starter s terminal that is feed from starter switch crank position.
You may have to compare old starter solenoid with new one, as far as the wiring. See if they are the same as far as wire terminals? I'm not sure I answered your question? I can't see anything from here?

SOURCE: 2006 Pontiac Torrent rear drums

They pull off just like any other vehicle, unless you live in an area where they use salt. Brake and suspension parts on these rust and sieze quickly. Soak with penetrating oil and keep tapping around perimiter. I do this for a living, and I've had Torrent drums take me hours to break loose (I'm surprised the wheels even came off)

Starter wire placment

on the solenoid there are 2 major terminals one terminal will have a large wire under the nut going into the starter and one will not have anything. The battery lead (positive) will go on the terminal that has no wire . A small wire will go to the very small terminal between the larger ones. Starter wire from ignition switch. Circuit is power from the ignition switch energises the solenoid which closes a set of contacts inside the solenoid and allows the current from the battery to flow out the second terminal down into the starter to turn the armature.

MY 2007 PONTIAC TORRENT ingition turns on with all the power but when trying to start the car I get nothing,My starter motor has power going to it but still nothing

May be weak battery try jumper cables.
clean both cables at battery
then have the battery load tested.
Next remove starter and connect with jumper cables.
bypass solenoid with screwdriver.
if the battery is dun down measure the alternator output.
it should run at 14.7 vdc with everything turned on.

2001 sunfire put new starter in car would not start so put in new battery car finally started after holding key to start then would not turn off unless u disconect battery posts, now when u put posts...

Hi, it sounds like the starter solenoid was not wired properly. You have 2 wires at the starter, right? The bigger wire goes to the big top post on the solenoid, right? The smaller wire is called the start wire and it goes to the smaller terminal labeled "S." Is that how you wired it? You also have to be careful when tightening the nuts on the terminals that the start wire terminal does not touch the other terminals and vice versa. Do you have the starter in the car now? Can you take a picture to send me?

I have a 2006 Torrent that keeps trying to start itself. No key in the ignition. When its not trying to crank the starter, the lights on the dash blink on and off.

Serious wiring problem or short--get fixed very soon or it MAY catch on fire or burn wires out--remove battery cable until you either drive or tow it to a garage.

Starter solenoid???? 2 large posts and 2 small posts on old one or 2 large and 1 small? the one large wire goes to the starter(rear post), all the others goes on the front post. little wire goes on the little post, if the old one has 4 posts, then you have the wrong solenoid.

My car wont start only click when i turn the key

this problem is caused by a defective starter motor solenoid, the solenoid is mounted on the starter motor, the easiest thing to do is just install a rebuilt starter.

94 bronco 5.0 will not start changed solinoid

Remove starter wire from solenoid and firmly touch it to the other wire on solenoid. It will spark some, starter should crank if working; providing battery power is good and the battery connections are clean. Check the heavy ground wire from battery to where it's connected to the engine or body are clean. If not, starter is bad.

Changing the starter solenoid on a 2000 Pontiac Montana

On your van the solenoid is attached to the starter. If you can get a solenoid separate (i don't know if you can) then you will need to take the starter off and remove the solenoid (2 screws holding it on) and the wires (on red and one black i believe) pay attention to which wire goes where because you don't want to reverse it on the new solenoid.
