    if you see 5V ALL THE TIME…you are likely getting some weird back feed from the stater lead but if you ONLY SEE +5V only when activating the starter with the key then the starter internal contacts are likely shot

    tried a new starter ??

    if you disconnect the fat 12v input to the starter and disconnect the fat starter wire (output) and start … the selenoid should click and… you should see 0 ohms.. or very close to….. between to two fat posts . a high resistance indicates bad… pitted, corroded internal contacts .

    but all being said… do make certain the black wire is properly grounded…and clean all connection points from the bat +12v up to and including starter +12v post
