I banged the solenoid with a small hammer as Norman Nock told me to do when
that happened a few years ago. Bingo! It worked. Thanks for all the advice.
I've printed them and will keep them in the boot for when I know it will
happen again. I will also carry the new solenoid in the boot.
Thanks for the help.
