Red face starter sol 73gmc 350v

Hi all, i am starting the engine with an acutron remote hookup. The engine starts but the solenoid doesn't disengage. A loud noise comes from the starter area. Is the starter bad. Up to now never has been used. the starter w/solenoid was purchased on amazon new. Please advise. Thanks, Frank 73oldie.

if the starter didnt disengage you should prolly remove it and bench test it to see if its bad

Hi Rusty, I seemed to have found the problem. I had an exitor wire wired to the solenoid post. After i removed the wire the solenoid disengaged. Ths exitor wire according to Ezwiring should go to the ignition. Then from ignition to the s post. Now i have to figure that hookup. Am restoring this truck. Thanks for the help, i submitted a new problem thread today. Frank thanks again.
