The big red wire is the lead from the battery, then you have two wires that come together to a connection (that is a lead from your alternator & going God knows where), You put both of them on the same bolt, It is the closest one too you (from looking up under the car, the solinoid is biggybacking the starter right?). First slide the two wire on, then the battery line on, tighten good. It should work, but it sounds like you do not have enough juice in the battery to turn it over.
