My battery mount busted and the battery cable touched metal and fryed the
cable.
I replaced the pre heat box, and got a starter. it turned over 1 time but not
again, so I took it back. They gave me another one and benched tested it.
When I put it in it doesnt turn over at all, just clicks. Now I hear that I
need to get, maybe the correct starter according to my vin. Is this true, why
didnt the parts house know there are different starters.

Is the starter the only thing, besides the pre heat box that are on the line,
that could be wrong?
Maybe amount of teeth or?

Anyone know about this?

Have you tried another battery?  It sounds as though your cable cooking
escapade has done yours no good at all.

Count the teeth on the flywheel it takes time.yes it does help if you
got your vin number when you order parts like that.or a very good parts
department that know what they are on about when it come to things like
this.

I am ordering a new starter again (3rd) and it is remanufactured in USA,
(other 2 mexico) plus they asked for VIN. I was again told the amount of
teeth. Gonna stay away from auto parts chains
Thank You also put in new battery and cables (and mount repaired)
Hope she starts,

Did you check out the earth connection to the engine (and therefore
starter).  That can have the same effect if the connection is in poor shape.

Is that the wire braided looking ground? I should replace it? It does look
colored from the short. I will replace this also. Thank you
