Trying to get my 83.5 wbx back on the road after sitting for the past year plus. Fresh battery but when turning key to start I get nothing. I did remove and replace the low amp wore to the solenoid a few times, cleaned the grounds etc. After tapping the solenoid with a large wrench it did work briefly but has now "gone back into retirement".

What is the best/easiest way to remove it? Can it be disassembled and cleaned or must I replace it?

Thanks in advance Cheers Don
