Negative Battery Terminal is Gone
One day I took the engine out the Satsuma because I wanted to put the racing Flywheel in. I saved the game with the engine out the car just in case I messed something up, and when I loaded back and put the engine in, the negative battery terminal was gone! I saved again thinking the terminal would come back but it never came back ;( The battery works though, and when the positive is connected the electrics work, but the engine doesn't turn, i'm assuming because the starter is not connected to the negative terminal.

have you tried removing the starter completely, doing a save/load, and then trying to reattach it?

Haven't tried it, so i'll give it a try!

No, unfortunately that didn't work. When holding the wiring mess up to the battery, it still shows a check mark with (NEGATIVE TERMINAL) next to it. But when I try to wire it to something else (starter, alternator) nothing happens.

Yup, I thought I was done when I connected the wire to the 5mm bolt, but forgot about the bottom regular 7mm bolt. Thanks man!
