I just replaced and old 2 wire motor to a new three wire motor and cant figure out the wiring. I don't know if i have the right solenoids and wiring.

Likely that you do not have the correct wiring.

You generally need to replace a 2 wire motor with another 2 wire motor. Or you will need to rewire the system from scratch.

What motor? Sounds "backwards"? Newer 2 wire has relays. Older 3 wire used solenoids for as I know......

First of all, 3 wire PTT motors came first. They used one or two solenoids. Newer motors have 2 wire motors. These must use dual relays. What are you working on?
