Reply to "E unit solenoid"

Ok —stay with me guys.  Here is what I did now.

i found the loose end. I carefully unwind it around the spool till it comes back out to the lug I want to reconnect, where the broken end is at.

as an experiment, I make a splice with the 2 ends, and it seems to try to energize the solenoid.  My splice is not a soldered yet.  I just twisted the wires together.  Just to see if the solenoid will energize.  It does but when it goes to neutral, I can see sparking—- the spool seems to be arcing where the rivet for the e unit lever is , the rivet that the lever rotates on.   But on the inside of the metal case that that holds the spool.

so at least the e unit will work —-when I solder a new connection,—- but trying to not get that arcing on that rivet looks like the next challenge.  I’m pumped that I figured this much out with all the help you guys are giving me.

any thoughts etc?
