    Replacement Solenoid 1100ES

    The old one looks like this:



    The two prongs accept the Y/G wire and a B/W wire.



    The couple of spares I have do not have the 2 prongs. They have a soldered Y/G wire with a bullet connection.



    Solder the B/W wire to the other location on the Solenoid or can I just ground it anywhere?

    Not sure what "other location" you might have in mind, but the case of your replacement solenoids is what needs to be connected to ground.

    If you do not plan on going back to the style solenoid that you have now, simply install the correct terminals on the ends of the wires and connect them. Put a female bullet on the yellow/green wire, connect it to the one on the solenoid. Put a ring terminal on the black/white wire, put it under one of the mounting screws.
