A microswitch is in no way designed to handle a large current load at all and would be a mistake to try to do so. </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">At 12 volts, the solenoid likely pulls near 20 amps at inrush. That'll toast the micro.
Get a $1.29 bosch relay and do it correctly. You won't be sorry.
