Could you specify for me, ?ground screw? Are you talking about the
main ground? The one that leads from the battery to the body, or a
different one? The starter should have one hot coming from the
positive terminal of the battery and then one solenoid wire. The
easiest way to determine if it's your batter or not is to test the
system with a battery that is known to be good. A bad starter can
destroy a previously good battery very quickly, regardless of voltage
readings. Try a different battery, not a jump start, and please let us
know.
