Starter solenoid location ?

#1 Post by flatlander » Thu Nov 03, 2011 7:49 am

As we all know me and spammers are never a good mix so I am trying screwdrivers now where does the blurry thing go is it under the seat hump? The updated 150 one to be fitted and yes I searched but hopeless git didn't give too many useful results :)

Under the rear cowl, right hand side.

You'll have to remove the thing entirely to get access but its no biggie

Rear seat cowl - not just the hump but the plastic bit below that.
You will think that it won't come off - you have to bend it ... probably more than you are comfortable with the first time you do it .....

Where are you mate? Your location is Cheshire but whereabouts? If you ain't too far I can pop round and give you a hand. (I'm in Northwich btw)
