test it out of the car

get two wires from the + and - terminals.

Wrap the -ve through one of the bolt holes.

now, touch the +ve to the small terminal. THis should trigger the solenoid - it should click loudly.

Next, touch the large terminal. The motor should run. It will be a lot quieter and smoother than on the car, but it will run.

Rick.
