That is the right solenoid. The only other test is voltage at the third small terminal- could have two small terminals, one would be ground then. That is an intermittent duty solenoid, but the controller cuts the hold voltage down, so you won't get full voltage at the small terminal all the time.
Small terminals had about .6 volts on each I think...might have to check again in the morning...what should it be?
One should have somewhere above 6 volts I believe- they do cut the voltage down after it engages, but the other should have 0 on it- I'm 90% sure one needs to be ground.
That other relay would work in a pinch- it's rated at half or less the current your present one is, so it would not be long lived, though if you kept the batteries up so it never had to do 200 amps it would be fine.
