missing starter

My Bx starter will miss every now and then. The symptom:
1. No click of the solenoid when the key is turned.
2. After second or more try the starter turns strongly and starts ok.
I have read through Alan's tips on BX starter and his decription of the problem seems similar to mine. In Alan's note, a wire in the 5 pin wilson plug is likely to be corroded and need replacement. I have no idea how a 5 pin wilson plug looks like. Can anyone help here?

I think its a big flat rectangular one that lives underneath the battery tray, pulling it apart and squirting with WD40 or something usually does the trick.
