Almost all the wires on a car are 22 gauge, but you should get automotive wire not home electric wire. You can find 22 gauge automotive wire in your local auto parts store

sorry about that I must have missed his signature line which does not appear anywhere in his post.
But even then he should describe what black box and what solenoid

Is this a trick question? Use whatever gauge wire was there to begin with. When in doubt go with a larger gauge.

Here is the photo,the red no power is the circuit breaker,and the wire is connected from one side to another.The circuit breaker is by solenoid.

Doesn't appear that those wires have any damage or corrosion. Why are you wanting to replace them, a no start condition?

Don't you think it would be better to post a pic of your parts rather than one from the internet.

I managed taking the pictures.As u can see the wire on the circuit breaker( I know why I did not do it first time).It's along story.

That isn't a circuit breaker, it is a mega fuse. That little wire is a jumper - that shouldn't be there.
