Stock ground location?
i modified my battery wiring years ago for my sound system. last time i took my car in for maintenance, the local shop mentioned something about me missing proper ground wires...as far as i can remember, the only stock ground wire is a short lead from the battery's negative terminal to the chassis, and there's no stock grounding strap on the engine itself. is this right, or am i misremembering?
thanks!
thanks!

There is an engine to chassis braided strap at the side motor mount. I just changed mine yesterday, it was green and weak looking like dried grass. I used a larger generic braid strap i had to wiggle n squeeze in there

There's another near the transmission mount, behind and under the battery.

For those who haven't changed grounds....
Old ground straps...
The one behind battery, under intake.
By the drive belt.
And obviously, the most important one is the battery negative to chassis. Couldn't take a pic.

could this cause the battery light to stay on leading to no starts?
