STARTER SYSTEM 5.2

GENERAL

The starter is made up of an armature, field winding assem­bly, solenoid, drive assembly, idler gear, and drive housing.
The starter motor torque is increased through gear reduction. The gear reduction consists of the drive pinion on the arma­ture, an idler gear, and a clutch gear in the drive housing. The idler gear is supported by rollers and the clutch gear is part of the overrunning clutch/drive assembly.
The overrunning clutch is the part which engages and drives the clutch ring gear. It also prevents the starter from overrun­ning. The field windings are connected in series with the armature through brushes and commutator segments.
The starter relay is a non-repairable part and must be replaced if it malfunctions.

Operation (Figure 5-1)

When the starter switch is pushed, the starter relay is acti­vated and battery current flows into the pull-in winding and the hold-in winding, to ground.
The magnetic forces of the pull-in and hold-in windings in the solenoid, pull the plunger and cause it to shift to the left, so that the pinion gear is engaged with the clutch ring gear. At the same time, the main solenoid contacts are closed and battery current flows directly through the field windings to the armature and to ground. Simultaneously, the pull-in winding is opened.
The current continues flowing through the hold-in winding, keeping the main solenoid contacts closed. At this point the starter begins to crank the engine.
After the engine has started, the pinion gear turns freely on the pinion shaft through the action of the overrunning clutch which prevents the armature overrunning by the rotation of the clutch ring gear.
When the starter switch is released, the current of the hold-in winding is fed through the main solenoid contacts and the direction of the current in the pull-in winding is reversed. The solenoid plunger is returned to its original position by the return spring, disengaging the pinion gear from the clutch ring gear.

REMOVAL

FLHR/C/S

FLHR/C/S

1. Remove left side saddlebag. See Section 2.25 SAD-
DLEBAG, REMOVAL.
2. Gently pull side cover from frame downtubes (no tools required).
3. Depress latches on maxi-fuse holder and then slide cover rearward to disengage tongue from groove in fuse block cover.
4. Pull fuse block from tabs on mounting panel. Tabs on panel fit into slots on each side of fuse block cover.
NOTE
The fuse block cover also serves as the spare fuse holder. One spare 10 amp and 15 amp fuse are provided.
5. Remove the fuse block cover. Raise lipped side slightly to disengage slots from tabs on fuse block.
6. Pull relay from slots in fuse block. See upper frame of
Figure 5-2.

1. Remove seat. See Section 2.24 SEAT, REMOVAL.
2. Locate the starter relay installed in cavity of frame cross­member at rear of battery box. See lower frame of Fig-
ure 5-2.
3. Place a finger on the rubber molding to hold it in posi­tion, and using a needle nose pliers, carefully pull on tab to release starter relay. Since the position of the relays may be reversed, starter relay can be positively identi­fied by heavy gauge Green wire.
4. Remove harness connector from bottom of relay.
