No, the coil will draw very low amperage, maybe 1 amp.
I mean the solenoid that has the house battery wire on one side of it. I think the coil has to do with the starting one.
No idea if it could be related, but my test with the solenoid closed had the middle post with the ?name? wire showing about 0.5v lower than the voltage at the engine battery side post. This was with the engine off, key to "ON".
I don't know where that thin middle wire comes from, but wondered if it could affect the voltage at the dash where the OP's voltmeter is mounted, but the real battery voltage be ok.
