Seems like this last wet winter was too much. Need some assistance as I am not sure what to do next.
When I press the starter button the first I hear a soft click from the starter motor, not the sound I recognize as from a low battery.
Charged battery (12.7 volt), Checked the thin wire to the starter motor, good contact and starter button works fine.
So I got a problem with the starter motor or the engine is totally locked up? What's the next step? Remove the starter motor?
Super Dexta not starting
Re: Super Dexta not starting
Check main cables, power and earth before stripping anything. Solenoid could be faulty. Starter could be jammed.
I take it that you have the new style starter with a solenoid incorporated not the original lever operated starter.

Re: Super Dexta not starting
Yeahy I got this one:
All the connections seem to be fine. I also tried tapping the starter with a small hammer. Still nothing. Is there a way to test the solenoid?
And uhhh stupid question but chassis is neutral right?

Re: Super Dexta not starting
Have you checked voltage at the solenoid terminals when pressing the starter button?
Oh yay, look, another seized bolt! Lets get a hammer.....and some kano.....and some cider!

hi
if it has a dynamo , then probably positive earth
alternator , probably negative
the battery lead terminals are different sizes tho so this should be a guide
originally I think it would have been a dynamo , so positive earth., but mine has a alternator and its negative
