slgk-160 missing electical part
Hi I have a slgk-160 problem when i turn the key nothing happens .I jumped the starter and it turns over but no spark & head lights do not work. in the electric box above the engine i have a plug with 4 wires red, black, black & white &,grey but nothing to plug it into? could i be missing a part? is this my problem? See pics

The plug looks like a relay goes there.

I agree about the empty plug- the big blue box looks like some kind of relay for the starter since it has such a heavy gauge red wire. I've not worked or seen one of these buggies- but you have electrical I don't normally see, the 2 wires(white & red) on the right appears to be another type of relay .Does this have a remote/handheld kill switch? that's what the 3 wires (blue,white,red/black)going into the thin white part/box at the bottom looks like.

It also looks like a emtpy hole for a relay.

the carter engine/harness i have has a relay, but it's up at the instrument panel. if the kill switch wires aren't connected together (i don't have a switch) it clicks, so it's definitely part of the starting circuit. I'll check tomorrow to see what config the terminals are in and what brand/# it is.
I also have a sunl, SGA-150. harness for that is in the basement at the moment, not even sure if it's all there, i'll check that out too. Did you just get this buggy? |

Nothing in the harness pieces I have for my Sunl appears to have a relay. that isn't to say it didn't have one though. Some not-too-mechanically inclined hands took it apart before i got it.
The relay with my Carter Talon harness is a common single pole single throw automotive type. terminal configuration matches your plug, and the numeric terminal IDs and functions match the relay below. Link below has a commonly available version. worth a shot for the price. With it removed from my harness, I get nothing at all at when i turn the key. Pretty sure it's basically the secondary ignition circuit tied into the safety switch. Previously i stated "kill" switch when i meant the two wires on mine that at one point probably went to a brake pedal safety switch. With the relay connected and the safety switch wires disconnected from one another, the relay clicks. http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...uctId=3020762# Last edited by x-bird; 06-12-2012 at 08:37 AM. |

it might, if the relay has a little schematic on the side of it, post a picture of it. it may not have the correct switching function for what you need. Also make sure the fuse on your positive wire isn't blown.

here is a pic of the relay box. top & mid pin power to lamps, right pin to ground, bottom pin to fused power, left pin to switch, is what the box says .
my actual connector does not have a wire on the top pin. i am in the proccess of tracking wires to see if they match relay. |

welcome bestdaddy what do you mean your plug is empty? does that mean it doesn't have a spark plug in it? it well help if you can tell us what kind of buggy it is.
