E start issues
Folks,
I've got a 2014 ec250 that has had the 2015 e start kit retrofitted to it. The E-start has never worked properly, it just makes an awful squealing noise but fails to turn over the engine. It appears the bendix is ok and is engaging with the crownwheel I stripped the bendix down last week and cleaned and oiled it, all teeth are present and are if good condition. Any ideas? It may be something as simple as a flat battery or misalignment. |

What about the sprag clutch on the crank? Did you check that it engages correctly?

I just checked the parts list. There is no such thing in the GG. Sorry for the confusion I made.

I have no direct knowledge on the 2015 parts, however a sprag clutch is a normal requirement of an electric start assembly. It is inside the bendix unit. The individiual sprag elements are lightly tensioned by a "gathering spring". They are hidden behind a sheetmetal cover that must be moved to make the internal parts visible.
Some folks have improved the estart action by lightly stretching the gathering spring. The best solution is to replace the bendix with one from a scooter. The part number is in other threads about estart problems. My take on things is that the the main bendix return spring is too strong in the stock GG assembly. It is not a drop in replacement and requires pressing the drive gear etc.

The 2015 bendix is different to the Honda scooter one.
