Did you connect the smaller wire to the starter solenoid? Are the fuses good?

if the wiring is good, go back into the starter solenoid.. check & clean the copper contact for any corrosion. also, where was it purchased? buy a good AC/Delco OEM or Napa. some part places give stuff that last only a month or less.

I bought it at O'Rielly's auto parts and i didnt check the fuses and yes i connected a red and a black to a smaller bolt and two big groups of black wires and i dont know if the small black wire went there or with the others.

I have a 99 pontiac grand am se 3.4L V6. The issue is that it starts and idles fine but as soon as I go to accelerate it just shuts off. It did have overheating issues but right after I fixed those it started doing this. I replaced the cam position sensor and also the engine coolant temp sensor and it didnt help. I was thinking of replacing the ignition coil packs and housi g but not sure if that would fix it. There are no check engine lights or stored codes . 4 Answers
