I've not seen a soleniod with more than 2 wires/prongs. Just another thought is to go to the auto parts store and buy a circiut breaker ($5.00-$6.00) , they come in 15amp -35amp with 2 terminals (post & nut).I've used them with great success-when you get thermal runaway it just trips and you wait a few seconds for it to cool and it clicks back into operation.I figured this out from the kids running the starter with the kill switch still on and would burn up the soleniod, starter or run the battery dead.
