I have a question regarding my CanAm Outlander My old starter solenoid broke so I removed it. Weeks later i got a new one and made the fatal error of not taking a picture of the way it was wired. I tried what i believe is every way the wires could go but all i get is either it wants to continuously crank soon as i connect the battery or when i try other wire configurations it sparks heavily when i connect the battery. Clearly out of my league here. Tried youtube and googling for a diagram but can't find anything helpful. Can somebody please help! Sort by Oldest first Oldest first Newest first Most reactions.

This is how a 4-pole starter solenoid switch is connected. One of the larger terminals is connected to the hot wire coming from the battery, the second large terminal is connected to the starter, the first smaller terminal S connects to the ignition switch, the second small terminal connects to either ballast resistor R or ignition coil I and is generally unused. Make sure to ground the frame. Solenoids provide a safe and easy way of activating and deactivating any kind of electrical ON and OFF components. They allow to activate high current circuits and manage them by switching on two contacts that need considerably less power to be activated than the current that the solenoid is going to handle. When a small current is applied to a solenoid, a coil located inside generates a magnetic field that moves a plunger that drives the high current switch to the closed position. Please watch this video for more detailed information on 4-pole solenoid wiring schematics :. A starter solenoid usually has four terminals: two terminals are used for the high current circuit and the other two are the low current terminals of the solenoid, which are connected to the inner coil, and are the ones that trigger the high current device on the high power end. Assuming that you are going to perform this wiring in a car, you are probably going to use a 12V battery. If you want, you can use brown or orange cables on the high-current end of the circuit, to distinguish them from the solenoid to battery connections.

September 1, A starter is essential for cranking the vehicle in the engine. It has two main components, the motor and the starter solenoid. To move the motor, you need to control the starter solenoid. This article will teach you how to wire up a starter solenoid. Two components make up the entire starter motor and solenoid combo. The Solenoid is the smaller of the two cylindrical parts, while the motor is more significant. Essentially, a starter solenoid is just an electromagnetic switch.

Now, Above the silver post there are letters I and S I'm guessing that these mean ignition and starter. Privacy Terms. All times are UTC. Keep the big post with the 'BAT' sticker on the top. With the four-pole solenoid the two small posts are for the coil. When present, this post is the ground for the solenoid coil, and goes to the transmission neutral safety switch.

You will find one of the bigger terminals is attached to the hot wire coming from the battery, the second large terminal is connected to the starter, the first shorter terminal S connects to the ignition switch, and the second small terminal is normally unused in a 4 pole solenoid wiring. Make certain that the frame is grounded. A solenoid switch is an electrical switch that is commonly used when a low current switch activates a high current circuit, such as a starting motor circuit.

Mustang Forums at StangNet It has slightly longer post than the stock starter solenoid if someone needs to add more wires to the starter solenoid and, the ST is a VERY common "alternative" part for other stock applications. I appreciate your help veey much. Does it matter what wire goes to which control pole? When present, this post is the ground for the solenoid coil, and goes to the transmission neutral safety switch. S terminal stand for Start and should have about 5 Oms between it and the ground. Works on trucks, cars, several different styles of tractor ignitions as well. Post by Chuck » Mon Oct 28, pm.
