Default Starter Chaos!!!!

I'll try to keep it short.....

Starter went out on truck....no clicks or anything. Replaced the starter and the main power feed from the solenoid to the starter because of corrosion on the factory harness.

Put the new starter in last night....it fired right now. In fact it fired up and ran great the rest of the evening.

Well, went out there tonight and it won't start....nothing again.

I'm thinking I have an electrical issue? I pulled the battery took it to autozone and it test fine. Put it back in, plugged the jump box in and it didn't do anything either with that....so I'm certain I'm getting enough juice.

So....any ideas??? New starter, works for one day...craps out again?? Something else going one?

It could also be the starter relay in the firewall. Get a big screw driving and try to jump the two terminal on it. Put your key to on. Its most likey the stater relay.
