The main power ground goes from the battery negative terminal down to the engine block. There is a small splice on the way there that goes to the frame, but it is used for trailer towing only.

It it is a little gray connector that you remove to time the truck. It is located near the back of the firewall where the computer is. Just remove it and see if it will start

It's irrelevant since the truck is not spinning (cranking/turning/etc.) over, or at least that is how I interpret your current issue.

Do what the two guys above said. They are two of our best. I thought the truck was turning over. Sandy

Update unplugged that little gray connecter still same thing unplugged icm still same thing what is the little 2x1 inch rectangle thing called next to starter solenoid on fender it has red and black wire to it? Also could it be the entire battery cables cause sometimes they get hot during the click or jump the solenoid but still nothing more than a click
