| Hey mates need some advice. At about 90k miles (no I'm not complaining) my Vision started with a very intermittent starting problem. Just to get thru this.... Batter is strong and terminals tight. When this issue shows its face I get a click only while trying to start.... 1 click each time I press the button. This issue is easily fixed by moving the lead wire to the solenoid, just a little wiggle and she fires up fine. I can go thru days of riding without the issue... Or it can show up 2-3 times in a ride day. Want to fix it before it gets worse.
Anyone have a idea? Simple as replacing the solenoid? Starter seems strong and I am sure it's not the handle bar switch. Thanks for any advice

Grand Cane, LA | Definitely sounds like your solenoid Jeff. Have you checked your connections at the solenoid? Especially the wire coming from the starter switch. The spade connectors can get loose over time. Sounds like your just a few clicks away from that solenoid quitting altogether. |
