I posted earlier that I think the ECU may control the starter. Can anyone confirm this. Again, there was a post I think about a Norge that the ECU starter circuits had gone bad. I can't find that post.

14 Norge here, but still having those issues. I have startus interruptus, and a new starter, big hot cranking battery and checked every connection. When I turn it on and push the button, I get nothing. No click. Silence. I push and hold again and repeat until it connects. It will then crank and start. I keep looking for a solution. Sometimes it cranks first push of the button, it's just a crapshoot every time.
I'd try a simple $10 button, see if ECU likes it. If not bypass the ECU part of equation. It works wired direct, ECU pics up after running w/key on. Start button does not need to be in the equation. It doesn't effect imobilizer, it's bypassed too.That's if you want to ride & not talk about whats wrong, most likely a bad pin connector somewhere. I put a whole wiring loom on a Griso fews years back, it fixed his issues.
I HAVE BEEN A SPARKY FOR 60+ YEARS, I'M DAMBED IF I CAN FIGURE OUT THIS CRAZY CIRCITRY, THERE'S SOMETHING GUZZI ARN'T TELLING US THE WINDSCREEEN CONTROLS AND FRONT AND REAR STOP SWITCHES ARE JUST A COUPLE OF THINGSMAIN INJECTION RELAY??????????I WOULD BE WIRING IN A BUTTON FROM BATTERY POSITIVE TO THE SOLENOID SPADE CONNECTOR, WHATEVER IT TAKES TO CLOSE THE SOLENOID.
There's some pretty weird circuitry around the Start relay, Fuse A FEEDS THE FRONT AND REAR STOPLIGHT SWITCHES, I DON'T QUITE SEE HOW THEY EFFECT
I cleaned and used DeOxit on the four spade terminals and in the four receiver spades in the socket housing plug. Reinstalled the stock relay and I have NOT been able to duplicate a CLUNK ever since. Cranks and starts first time, every time. Day One repetitively reliable.
Yes the clunk can happen with jumper cables, I tried 2 different batteries jumping with fully charged new ones.I had to remove the side panel just to access the spade connection on back of starter, ground cable looked like new.I put on a heavier gauge wire to the spade but haven’t tried it yet. I want to add another relay like zoom zoom did on a different thread.
Is there ever a time where the problem occurs with the jumper leads on ? Surely it couldn’t be some fault in the battery could it ?such that the high amps cannot be delivered to the starter.A bit lame I’ll concede, but if it jump starts reliably, I can see no other reason.
