So I did that as much as I could get to including the battery terminals. I also removed and replaced electrical wire tape on the harness making sure to isolate ground and power wires. I noticed that the rubber grommet that seals the solenoid connection into the starter is melted, probably where the smoke came from. The starter was recently rebuilt, a couple of years ago and I pulled it last year and took it in to be tested, they said it was in good condition. The batteries have a full charge, I turned the lights on and tried starting it and they dimmed quite a bit.
