Reply To: Aquila gv250 efi starter solenoid help
Hey Bianca,
Not to worry, if that unit is working, then that’s good.
- Open the rider’s seat and remove the side plastic covers hiding the battery.
- Go behind the rear engine exhaust …. (it has 2 engines, so go to the back facing engine and look at the exhaust pipe area where the clutch cable ends up.
- There is a metal plate that is attached to the frame and the metal plate has 2 hooks on it.
- These 2 hooks are facing the plastic battery try.
Found it ?
- The solenoid has a rubber cover ..,. put it inside the rubber cover like this
- After that, look for the 2 slits on the sides of the rubber cover….. like below:
The space between the plastic battery tray and the metal plate with hooks is very narrow, so i would carefully take your time and slot it in.
Done?
Find a 2-pin plug (on the bike harness) that’s exactly the same as the fashion as the solenoid itself (ie. male connector going to the female slot) and the wire colours “must” be identical.
There is another plug that is for the FUEL TANK sensor (so becareful not to plug the wrong wire!) , if you press start , you might blow up!
Thankfully Hyosung has made sure the FUEL sensor plug has different wire colours to the plug for the STARTING SOLENOID
This next step is connecting it to the battery and starter motor, so excercise caution.
- Remove battery first!
- Red wire from the battery (the thickest part) goes to one side of the solenoid and screw it tight using it’s own nuts at the top of it.
- The Starter Motor itself has 1 single thick strong wire that goes to the opposite side of the starter solenoid.
Double check everything!
Then connect the battery and test when it is safe to do so.
Hope that helps.
