hope someone here can help me out..thanks guys!
hello, i bought a new solenoid for my 400 b/c the old one was junk...well it had a different connector on it so i cut it off and spliced the yellow w/ red tracer to the matching wire on the harness and the other one was green with a yellow stripe and i put that to the yellow wire with the green stripe - this seemed the most logical way, seeing how 2 of the 4 wires are identical.
ok so thats good to go
so i put the battery and ground cable onto their correct terminals and the bike wont stop cranking.. like the solenoid is shorted out or somethin. BUT, when i leave the cables off of it, and i hit the ignition switch, the solenoid clicks like it is operating correctly..
also, the starter is working fine, i can start it by grounding out the circuit...
so whats goin on here? thanks a bunch!!!!
