"A simple way to fix it, go through MSCEditor in the wiring section, change these:
- wiringgroundinstalled to 'true'
- wiringstarterbolted to 'true'
- wiringstarterbolts and edit the '0' between parentheses to '8'
- wiringstarterinstalled to 'true'
- wiringstartertightness to '8'

And under 'batteryterminalminusinstalled' change the value of the 'batteryterminalminusinstalled' key to true."

Do this on MSC Editor that should fix it.
i did what you told but still one bolt is missing and my car is cathing fire after did what you said.
Sorry that quote was for adding the NEGATIVE terminal. Try doing it with the batteryteminalplus not minus.

Tighten with 8mm wrench.
Tighten the positive first (red) and the negative 2nd (black).

Battery may be toast if you sparks happened. Happened to me on my first build & my battery was dead. I don't know if it was related to the sparks or not.

Sparks will cause a fire.

You are missing the actual bolt on the positive terminal. Did you wire the starter to the battery? Or did you wire through msc editor. It should look exactly like the negative terminal in the pic you posted.

Might be there's a scriptal bug because there's a little bolt not actual or because of Experimental Update.

Sorry that quote was for adding the NEGATIVE terminal. Try doing it with the batteryteminalplus not minus.
