Yamaha G16AW Not Cranking Over
Hi all, I could use a little help. 2000-2001 Yamaha G16AW was running yesterday! Now it's not cranking over. Checked battery---good. when I turn key on the oil light doesn't even light anymore (it used to I think). Jumped key switch (only has two wires), no change.
Relay in the black box clicks when I step on gas with key on, but does not crank. Solenoid is getting power to "hot" side of the "coil" but not seeing power at the small "kicker" wire at all. Solenoid ground has good ground. I believe its the starter solenoid (yamaha calls it the relay?) I have power to the red lead on the solenoid when the accelerator is pressed... but solenoid does not engage... I jump the solenoid and it starts and runs! yay.. still I notice the oil light that I thought used to be on when key is on is not.. so...is it supposed to be on when key turns on or not? Have I figured it out or is there another issue I am not seeing? Looks like solenoid part # is JF2-H1950-00-00... expensive little bugger... anyone have an alternative thats less then $50? Any other ideas? Appreciate any help in advance! |

Re: Yamaha G16AW Not Cranking Over
It sounds like you answered your own question lol. It sounds like it's the solenoid/relay. With parts like that, I only buy factory, just better quality. Price isn't everything. If you want something to work the way it's supposed to, pony up for the factory part. Think of how many times in a year that relay gets used?

Yamaha G16AW Not Cranking Over
When it does it try turning key on and off and hit gas pedal. One of the cart i have (G16A) that does that once in a while. The same cart did it also changed relay and still would not start. Had battery tested. It was bad. Replaced it. It works now but still does that clicking sound and not starting once and a while though.
