Re: starter or solenoid problem?

My solenoid must be a generic solenoid, as it looks larger than the one in your picture, though it does have the lever on the rear, with 3 terminals in front. The largest terminal is at 12 o'clock and receives 5 wires leading to it. The 4 o'clock terminal receives one wire, and the 3rd one goes down into the Starter motor. All terminals are on the front of the solenoid-none on top.

The largest terminal with 5 wires going into it is always hot, even with the key off. Neither of the other two terminals are ever hot, even with the key in the start position.

If you could send me an email address as a personal message I believe I can send the picture to you. It is 5,900 mb in color, but is less than 1,000 kb in black and white image. Thank you very much!
