Startus Interruptus
« on: August 12, 2026, 07:49:47 AM »
Having a little trouble with starting my '09 Stelvio. When I hit the start button it usually springs to life but sometimes there is a delay of a few seconds before the starter kicks in. I did the Starter Interruptus fix as recommended by those in the know and also put a new battery in along with cleaning up my battery connections. So what could the problem be? Starter relay? Thanks.

Beyong more connection & earth checking solutions.........I have 09 Griso 8V and after 9 years no probs I got starting probs....I went for the 'Ver2' of Startus Interuptus with new starter relay down next to the Starter Motor (along with new Yuasa, bigger fuses etc) & I still get odd starting probs (OK after a few goes still) that I put down to solenoid despite trying to clean solenoid several times....I'm thinking it's just getting old & if it gets bad I'll just throw a new starter & relay in.

Looks similar to what I did. Does the original stock starter relay still have a role to play or does this completely bypass it, anyone?

If all else fails(Guzzi's wiring engineering) make a hot wire button. Strait from batt + post strait to the solenoid. Funny, this always works when their crap doesn't. That's cause you get rid of all the lectrical crap in the way.

Believe it just uses the original solenoid feed as trigger for a new 12V supply (fused).  It's here https://www.grisoghetto.com/t6354-startus-interruptus-fix-2

So if that relay is not working as it should the new Startus Interruptus fix would be effected, unless I'm not understanding, which is likely.
