The DBCM melted on my battery block and I
changed it. Also checked battery and changed
alternator. Checked the starter clicks no start.
Tried to do the connection to the two bolts on
solenoid . Nothing

Battery has a full charge and battery connections all good, positive and negative, all ends, not just at the battery? When you tried to jump the starter, did you see any sparks, any indication of voltage? The bat terminal at starter motor is hot all the time and fuse protected. If no voltage, jumping the starter won't do anything. You can use a test light to check for voltage. Note the diagram. If you think it might be the starter motor, usually you can take it off, lay it on the ground, Hook up jumper cables properly from charged battery to starter motor, at the least, it should kick out the drive gear and spin. Some of the national brand auto stores will test starter motor for you.

this is a safety hazard and should be a recall what if you had an emergency and had to go to the hospital you have to wait ten minuets before you can go really.
