Old G1 blowing fuse...

rgcars · 04-01-2008, 02:04 PM

I've got a 15amp fuse that keeps blowing on me.. it is hooked to the solenoid and then the other side i believe goes to the frame. I have power coming back to the fuse holder from the solenoid and continuity to the neg side of battery on other side of the fuse.. im wondering if i could have a bad solenoid?? any one have any suggestions or a way to check the solenoid? all my lights are all unhooked from battery.. all i have is the positve and negitive hooked up on the battery.. maybe shorting in the solenoid?? i dont know my self and im starting to think i need to get a gas can and a match..LOL thanks!

I'm not sure about the G1's, but I know the 4 strokes can't have anything grounded to the frame without blowing the main fuse. You definitely have a short somewhere.

I have 12volts at all the terminals on the starter/gen thats not normal is it? the short has to be in a component... i've checked the whole wiring harness. any idea where i can get a wiring schmatic for 2stroke G1?
