Default Can someone explain how the solenoids work on a 79 G1?

Ok, I started a new thread cause I thought this might come in handy for somebody else down the road. I need somebody to walk me through the solenoid set up on my G1. The problem I have is I get a click and then nothing, If I contuine to hold the pedal down one of the terminals start to smoke and one of the cables coming from the starter to the solenoid gets so hot you cant touch it.

What I need is somebody to tell me what wire is sopose to be hot with the pedal up and which one is hot with the pedal down. I am assumeing the solenoids are bad but I wanna be able to check them first if you guys can help me with that. I looked at wireing diagram but it just doesnt make since to me.

Thanks for any help.
Matt

Did you try doing a search? I found at least 10 threads just by a simple search.

There's two good one's. Please try the search feature, it works great. You might have to do some scanning, but you'll find huge resources here. When you find a good one, just bookmark it.

Hope this helps...
There is an error in the G1 manual. The N.O./N.C. contacts are labled incorrectly on the reverse solenoid.

Marathon, Thats excatly what I was needing. For somereason the one that you have labeled 12vdc when pedal down in rev the termianl above that will smoke and turn cherry red if I hold the pedal down. Also Are all the wires going to the starter sopose to be hot at all times?

Is there away to by pass the sols. to be able to see if I have compression in the motor? I bought this non running and I am trying to get it to at least crank so I can check compression to see if I will need to pull the piston and replace it. Thanks guys
