Hi Jay,
When you try this again, get the system to its failed state, and then measure
from the positive battery post to the cable clamp around the post. Then
measure from the cable clamp to the cable itself. Do the same for the negative
side. If you have an electrolytically corroded connection, it would show up
right there.
If you do have to work on the solenoid, just make sure to unhook the battery
connections first.
