  • No change. The switch and wire doesn't know the difference.

  • Guess I should have added I bought a new solenoid from ebay saying it was for a 8n but grounding out the small terminal does nothing. Positive activates it.
    Sounds like I need a different solenoid?? Who sells the correct one ?
    Thanks
