Hello everybody, I need some help here. I bought a new solenoid for my MF 390, the old one was more than often for not working (a single click when turning the key and i had to to the key for minutes before i actually worked once)
So here is my major problem, remove the old one there was corrosion inside in it. Hooked it up to the fork (which i hope was the right way), plugged the cables exactly how they were. I had to put the booster since the batteries were weak. It started extremely well, so i removed the booster and went to eat. After an houri went back switched off the tractor. Tried to start it again. nothing.... when i went to touch the solenoid it literally burned my hand. What i find strange is the i had to unplug the negative of the 2 batteries so the the solenoid cooled down. Sadly i think that part it fried but i want to know what went wrong? Bad install, bad part, something else?
i know some basic mechanic but i far from being an expert
