For reference, those diameters are very close: 4.5mm = 0.177" #10(3/16) = 0.1875" 5mm = 0.197" 65

General Discussion / Re: Wont Crank Over« Last post by cappisj1 on April 16, 2024, 09:32:24 PM »Had the no start click twice on my 08 Norge. First time it already had the starter fix done by prior owner. I cleaned all connections. Changed the starter. Nothing helped. The battery tested fine on my volt meter. Put a new battery in it. Problem went away.
4-5 years later it started clicking again. I put in a new battery and it’s been fine for 2 years now. I am no fan of the black art of electricity but a new battery always fixes the issue. Another thing is before changing the battery a jump box or even a battery charger added to the old battery would always make it start. You can go through the pain but I would start with a fresh battery. The extra starter button if a fix if you don’t want to jump it to start it when the battery just doesn’t have the juice to make it to past that solenoid. 68
