V7 Startus Interruptus
« on: June 25, 2025, 05:15:30 PM »
Hi,
    I have been looking into the possibility of the V7 suffering from Startus Interuptus
So far my 2014 V7III Special has been immune but for how much longer I don't know.
I did a drop test on the starter solenoid and calculated the inrush current will be just over 47 Amps who knows how long Luigis wiring will take that

?!? 2014 should be a MkI Heron Head ?!?

A MkIII would be a 2017 or later Hemi Head ?!?

My 2013 MkI Stone has never shown any problem like Startus Interruptus since new so I've not worried about it.

I'll burn the bridge if I ever get to it.

Kev,
      i'm currently helping an owner with a 2002 Stone to upgrade his wiring, he's getting the dreaded click.
47 Amps flows to the starter solenoid on my 2017 V7IIISpecial, it's just a matter of time before something lets go.
You are right its a 2017 not a 2014 :thumb: I should have looked at my profile :thewife:
