2nd solenoid fail - causes?

[awesomesteven]

What would cause the solenoid to fail again so quickly? Was it just a bad solenoid or something else? I've only had this one for about 2 weeks.

Where did the solenoid come from? If it was a quality part and went bad in two weeks I would do a starter draw test . It also maybe just a defective part?

It was purchased at advance auto. I also had the starter tested there and it was in good shape.

Advance is not a high quality parts store especially their electrical parts. I would go with Skidim, Napa or Carquest.
