Ground wire on starter? Plus electrical buzzing

Where are all the ground points? I found the ones below the engine label, but I'm wondering if one is supposed to be on the starter? I had to chad ge my starter because it went bad but there was no ground wire on the starter I took out?

Also there is an electrical buzz near the battery when the engine is off that only goes away if I take the battery cable off. Could no starter ground cause this?

Also my gauges are broken. I got a good set off an 04rxp but nothing shows on them when I if them into my ski? Do they need programming?

A buzz is almost always a low voltage battery.

Brand new AGM battery

As I understand it.... The gauges must come from the same year model or be re-flashed by a dealer, and then married to that ski's ECU. I have read this can prevent your ski from cranking and running.

As for the ground wire on the starter. All starters I have ever seen use the mounting bolts and ground directly to the block.

As for buzzing... Could it be the fuel pump you are hearing? Check the voltage of your battery. Brand new does not always mean fully charged.

The ground for the starter on my 05 rxt is located in the front of the engines block just behind the battery you will see 3 bolts that go into the block 1 is your starter ground other 2 are gauges and other things
