Based on experience�

Put the little wire back on the starter solenoid.

The lights are working the way they�re supposed to.

Now when I turn the key, I get no response at all, headlights are bright and I don't believe my battery is low.  When I turn the key with the headlights on, the headlights go out, not dim, but go out.  Turn signal and parking lights do not dim when key is turned.  Tried to jump start it.  Unsuccessful.  Anybody with any ideas let me know.  Contacting rescue squad.
