Hi there

yes this did hapen along with it doing nothing then starting to work fine then stiking on and finaly nothing at all. I o not know what casued this but the solinoid from a Honda I fitted after 2 yam ones fuckup.

I checked le electrical sustem twice and could find nothing wrong but the solinoid. I even load tested the starter motor twice i do not know what amps it should take but mine only took around 20A. if you find any test dater that might be of help pleace let me know and i will do the same.

I have a 1995 xt600e and have had all the problems with my ignition such as solenoid, ignition coil blowing. The cause of these problems lie with the TCI ignitor which appears to have a common fault. TCI ignition NOT a CDI. There is a czech company that does a replacement for about 120 of our new pounds sterling. I do not know the name of them so happy hunting.

Ok Solenoids are just high current switches - their contacts can weld themselves shut. Doesn't happen often but if it does the only way to shut the starter motor off is disconnect the battery. Not a good situation.

I can't see a good clear description of the exact problems you've been suffering, but it could be if the solenoid is weak replacing it with another kind is a valid fix.

Some relys do input into the ignition, so might need to find one with a similiar input - its not rocket science.
