you are correct, I misspoke. post edited to say "contacts ohm open"I'm not sure what you tested there. In the circuit (with all interlocks set for starting, and the key turned to start), with the (-) of the meter on ground, you should measure close to battery voltage on one solenoid terminal. and close to ground on the other.
Out of circuit you should have a few ohms resistance between the two small solenoid terminals, with no path to ground or to the big terminals. When a battery is connected to the two terminals it should snap closed.
