Hello, I got a replacement starter solenoid for my Spit, and the terminals are not exactly the same as the previous one. There is a connection for the wire that bypasses the ignition ballast resistor during cranking (it's the one with a yellow-white wire). On my old solenoid, there was a normal-sized female spade terminal for this connection. On the replacement unit, there is a 3/4 size male spade terminal. Does anyone know which is correct for a MK IV?
You might think: "Duh, the correct one is the one that the wire will plug in to!". But a previous owner had replaced the spade plug on the wire, so I have no idea what the wire originally had. I guess my choices are to either replace the connector on the end of the wire, or see if I can get a solenoid with exactly the same connections as the old one...
