The ground cable to the starter mounting bolt is a good idea. Measure the voltage at the output side of the fuse block. If after you clean your cables as Neil suggests you should read 6volts and be able to turn on the lights. If that works but starter doesn't respond your problem is now with either the switch on top of the motor or the starter motor itself.
