Thanks Chris. I can actually "operate" the sol. by removing/installing the ground, so it has voltage. Just not sure if the circuit board could somehow be keeping the sol. energized, or the switch somehow staying on? I am not finding a good schematic to figure it out. Yet.
The wall switch has nothing to do with energizing the solenoid. The solenoid is controlled by the Ignition module. I would suspect the ignition module has water corrosion on it and this is bleeding the voltage to the solenoid wire. Doug
