2010 HHR 2.2 Starter wire questions
#11
I put the battery on charge for a few hours before I tried to start it and also tried to jump start it, The key turns and I just get a single click not like a dead battery just like the starter isn't hooked up. Guessing I left something unhooked so will check tonight.

The click wasn't a normal starter click is was a relay or something some place I think. Right after I found this issue I found out my oil pan on the new to me engine is busted on my oil was leaking out so I was kinida pissed and just walked away. Tonight going to change oil pans and track down the wires looking the link Donbrew shared I think I might have left a few unhooked so printing the pics and going to double check all my wires tonight.
The battery is old I know I think it is the original battery I have had the car for 7 years and never replaced it and it is a 2010. I plan on getting a new one but want to make sure the new to me engine fires up and is running before I buy a battery.

In these photos I'm a little confused
Item number 2 red wire from the battery?
Item number 4 is that the remote starter? I don't think I saw that wire I know I don't have anything hooked to that post on my car right now. Might be my issue.
Item number 5 small red wire that looks like it goes to the alternator?

Okay so that would be my problem. Fully caused by me but should be a easy fix.
Thank you for that info and to everyone for helping me fix my stupidity. I knew I was in over my head with the engine swap but the car was for nothing if I wouldn't run so had to try and make it work.
