Testing solenoid
Can someone please confirm if I am following the proper procedure for doing a bench test of the solenoid on my Onan 4KYK generator? I applied 12 volt dc power to the large post that comes from the bat...

One thing I was wondering about. In a couple of videos on YouTube, they bench tested two solenoids similar to mine, with the exception that their small posts were bolts, instead of spades like mine. In those tests, they grounded the metal mounting bracket instead of the small "S" post. They got the solenoid to click. As you all know, on my solenoid, I had to ground the "S" post. Why the difference? Also, why do they refer to or label the small post as "S" if it is a ground post? Why don't they label it as "-" or "ground?"
