Hi Mike,

I think you might have other issues.. My OD also works fine with 6V, which i believe they all should do.. I think you will be over engineering the repair by trying to wire in a 12v battery when you shouldn't have to..

Maybe either check your wiring to the solenoid, or maybe the condition of the solenoid itself?
