Hoist brake solenoid buzzes/fluckers instead of steadily pulling

Has the OP ever said if there are two or three or how many wires going to the solenoid????

From what I can remember, it's a simple 2 wire solenoid.. That being the case, they should be connected to the # 1 & 2 wires of the motor relay output side M1,M2. If it was wired for 480, then the coil is connected to the #4 and #5 for example. That will get half the voltage when the motor operates. Standard for AC motors with add on brake on the back..

Not sure about the flamewar going on here, but it's actually not hard to get a LED to change colors. Get some liquid nitrogen and try it out.
