Starter problems

[Woodencardboard]

My electric start on my 86 spree dosnt work. Battery is good so that's ruled out. What else could be wrong?

Do the brake lights work?
The brake light signal is half of what makes the starter relay work.

The starter relay would be the next thing to check.

You can troubleshoot the circuit quickly at the starter relay with a multimeter.

See photo below of connections.

If you can hear the relay clicking jump to the contact side checks, and if those check out good, check the starter.

Relay Coil side checks
With the ignition switch 'on' and the brake lever pulled there should approx 12v at the Green/Yellow (brake light) wire.
While still holding the brake lever, the Yellow/Red start button connection will also be approx 12v. Pushing the start button should
pull that node to 0v (ground) and the relay should click.

Relay Contact side checks
The Red wire is always hot. It is directly wired to the battery. Check that with your multimeter. If no voltage inspect the fat red wire at the battery terminal lug.

Red/White - If the relay was heard clicking in the coil side checks above, verify voltage is present on this wire when the relay closes. If not - relay. If voltage is present, then verify wring out to the starter is good, and pull the starter if needed for check/replacement.
