Open the front-hood and locate the battery's RED-positive cable to where it ends. You should see the starter motor.

If the cables are all black-colored, check the plus-sign (+) on top of the battery. This cable leads to the starter motor.

The starter is in the rear of the engine,bolted on the drivers side.the positive cable will take you to it or the fuse box.iIt may be in the front of the engine,the positive cable that does'nt go to the starter should tell you the differance.Follow the cable from the positive post that does'nt go to the engine compartment fuse box and it will take you there.

Truck will not start how can i tell if its a starter or selonoid

does it spin real fast without clanging and grinding against the flywheel? if so then its probably the solenoid bad. do you have to hit the starter with a hammer then it works? it is probably bad brushes or a worn motor. eather way i think you can only get a new starter and solenoid together not sold seperate. check for bad battery cables (loose).
