Starter Question

<< < (2/6) > >>

WTF304:
I'd check the wiring to while your waiting ...... couldn't hurt to. Never know the relay might be good but something is touching that shouldn't

I was thinking the same thing, although my multimeter broke on me so I am going to get a new one.

Crossing my fingers that was the issue :)

In the mean time, I jacked her up and omg the grease and sludge build up! Looks like no one took care of her :(

WTF304:
Probably not .... luckly the PO who had it, was his first bike and the second owner. He took decent care of it and left it as original, now it's mine and i went through the whole bike over the winter months.

So I hooked up the relay solenoid that the batter and starter ground is connected too, I get power but all I hear when I hit the start button is just the clicking of the solenoid thats hooked into the solenoid assmbly that controls the lock cam. Even if I jump the solenoid with a screwdriver nothing happens. I am at a loss here, any suggestions?

WTF304:
Either a bad connection or something is bound up .... you didnt hit the starter with anything did you ? Tapping it with a hammer actually does damage to it. Or maybe you plugged it into the wrong connector possibly! ? I know the plugs look identical by the air box just double check it.

I'm almost willing to bet it's a bad connection, or maybe it is some wires got hot and melted to one another. It use to crank by itself but now that you took it apart and moved things it could have broken some strands of the wire.
