Yes that was a small screw. A brass screw. If you take the solenoid off of
the starter (something you will have to do anyway) and dismantle it you will
see what it looks like. There is a small wire (the solenoid coil wire)
attached to this screw. You can get a new screw at the hardware store (get
a few nuts while your there) and you might be able to attach this wire to the
new screw.
If this does not work get a new solenoid
