Checking operation of the starter solenoid
To check the solenoid starter proceed as indicated in sect. 6 - 8, "Starter motor relay".
Ensure that the terminals are not oxidised.
Position the solenoid-starter motor cable (4) and the solenoid-battery cable (5) on the solenoid terminals.
Start the screws (2) fitting the spring washers (3).
Tighten the screws (2) to a torque of 4 nm +/- 10% (sect. 3 - 3, Frame torque settings).
Apply waterproof spray in the area of the screws.
Fix the starter solenoid (1) to the battery support inserting it in the tongues (b).
Refit the protection cover (a) inserting it on the solenoid starter guides until it engages with the tabs on both sides of the solenoid starter.
