Adding electric start 800 Rev

[factoryrotax]

I put electric start on a 800 Rev and got everything on but the solenoid doesn't work do I need to put a fuse in or hook up some more wires? The wire harness that is by the chain case has two small wires that clip onto the solenoid where does the other go? Thanks for any help Rotax

I put one on my 800 last weeked- The third wire should go to the positive battery terminal- mine plugged right into the fuse holder on top of the battery box. The other wire coming out of the fuse hooks to the positive lead along with the wire going to the starter. I think some models /years don't have a fuse on top the battery box? You may want to put a fuse holder inline to protect your sleds electronics. Without this wire hooked to the battery you will not get any action because there is no power going to the start switch to be routed to the solenoid to make the starter engage. Did you swap out the short harness up under the hood too? This tells the sled it has a battery and re routes the output of the stator to charge the battery. It may or may not have a fuse on it also. You need to reuse the relay off of the old harness. Good luck!
