Most Liked Positive Review
I should have purchased it sooner
Dificult to attach all the wires on the outgoing side because terminal needs to be a little longer.

DOES NOT FIT
if your ford truck f-150, etc, has that split connector on bottom this will not fit ,,, they give you spacers, but they do not allow connector either

Stuck in the cranking position. Installed & Turned truck on one time OK. Second time wouldn't stop cranking. Probably ruining my starter. Had to Disconnect Battery to Stop. Double Checked Proper connection & it still did the same thing. I wouldn't buy this...

Comments about BWD Select Starter Solenoid:
Bought to replace one that periodically stuck closed (constant cranking).
First try, new one stuck and never returned.
Now the truck wont start at all, even with the old one.
Select? ...to do what?
