d9gdon Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 My 1990 CH 613 sometimes will not start with the key. You can jump it across the starter and it'll start right up. I've noticed that sometimes when you turn the key to the on position, none of the gauges or buzzers come on either. I can hear a loud clicking every time I turn the key on. I assume that's the constant duty solenoid. Is there a relay after that solenoid that could be bad? I noticed that solenoid is awfully warm after a while with the key on.I've checked the battery cables and they're tight and I don't see any bad wires or connections. This is an intermittent problem that seems to be getting worse. Usually it'll start up in the morning with the key when everything's cool, but won't after that.

fjh Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 The relay you hear clunking when the key is turned on is likely at fault replace that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QCDriver Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I had that problem, turned out to be battery disconnect. Somethings would work, small electronic stuff (radio cb etc.). Since the disconnect breaks the negative side somethings did not need the amps.. Bypassed the disconnect all together since I never used it. Problem gone.Hope yours is easy to fix like mine. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d9gdon Posted June 24, 2010 Author Share Posted June 24, 2010 Mine doesn't have a battery disconnect on it. Anybody have the wiring diagram? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
