Reversal of the polarity on one of the coils could potentially cause the starter to stay engaged after terminal 50 is de energized. However, I would expect that problem to show up in the bench test of the starter. I presumed that when P1800 ES says 'functions just fine out of the car' that when he energized terminal 50 the starter motor started and when he de energized terminal 50 the motor stopped.
