Just caught your message and saw your remark about the solenoid wires.
I think it makes a difference on which terminal is the ground side. The coil will not pull in the armature and push contacts closed that connect the starter motor up to the battery.
The DC current creates steady magnetic field so it should/could be directional sensitive.
AC current does "not" do steady and coils are made differently and your thinking is correct it makes no difference in "most" all cases about the leads.
But not to worry, if it does not crank you will just have to reverse the leads.
Sort of just got me to thinking, of which might be a bad thing, there is a possibility OF might?
Should Any Accessories become connected on the improper terminal side of that coil they
would not get enough current due to coils resistance. That bad boy pulls off some amperage.
Worth noting or spying on, if the k- jet cold start is not working, in by some chance, the wires got separated and one put on the wrong side...??
Power i.e. current from the key, to the TTS, may not be there.
Just a thought, that is very highly unlikely!
