Re: Need dash solenoid I'd please

You have 3 small wires going to the old solenoid. One of those small wires comes from the ignition switch, and is hot only when the ignition switch is "ON". You must identify which of the 3 small wires comes from the ignition switch. That small wire connects to red small wire on new solenoid. If the small wire from the ignition switch is one of the two wires connected together on the same stud on the old solenoid, then both of those wires will be connected to the red small wire on the new solenoid. The other remaining small wire on the old solenoid is the ground wire. It will connect to the black small wire on the new solenoid.
You can identify the "hot with ignition switch on" small wire and the "ground" small wire using a multimeter or a 12V test light.
