There should only be battery voltage on one of those small terminals on your solenoid. The one with voltage feeds your ignition switch and has voltage at all times. The other small terminal
will only have voltage when you attempt to start your engine. This is when you have a starter button or a key start. Once the engine starts
and you release the key from the start position
or quit pressing on the starter button there's no voltage on the other small terminal. It only has voltage when cranking the engine.

Both small terminals should have wires connected to them. Only one has voltage until you try to start the engine and the circuit is completed when you crank the engine and voltage is fed to the other wire. This the only time you have voltage on both terminals Check the other terminal to see if voltage is present. I think it should be near to the battery cable on your solenoid.

Clean that area where the solenoid attaches to the starter with some emery cloth. Paint & rust make good insulators. Hal
