I need to replace the boost solenoid in my '98 U295. Anyone have a part number or the specs for what to order?
Get a 200 amp continuous solenoid.

Ordered the Cole Hersee 24213 last night. Will be here today and installed tomorrow. Thanks Chuck.
If you have not actually looked at your old BOOST solenoid, you may find that it has only one small terminal (plus the 2 large battery posts). In this case, it makes ground connection through the mounting bracket.
The new Cole Hersee has 2 small terminals. One is for the "activation power" wire, and the other is for ground. Connect the existing "activation" wire to either of the two small terminals - it doesn't matter which one. Run a similar small gauge wire from the other small terminal to a good clean ground point. If your solenoid is mounted on a steel plate, you could just connect the ground wire to one of the mounting screws.
