John, the solenoid that was used on all bricklins was the standard ford solenoid.Amc used a special version of this that had an extra spade connector that allowed the neutral safety swich to provide the ground path that allowed the solenoid to work.B The normal , including bricklin solenoid grounded through the mounting bolts to the fender.B Hope this helps.Sent from my Galaxy Tab A
