I would like to add electric start to my 07 blizzard 800. I have a used working starter and it looks like I have the ring gear attached behind the clutch already. Also I have a battery already installed in my sled for a fish finder that I have mounted in to. What other parts do i need. Will the start button work when everything is installed or do I need to have it programmed?

The rer/starter button will work as long as you have the e-start configuration harness.

When you had the battery installed.. maybe they installed that so the battery would charge.

 

[Cusefan77]

I know they didn't do that. Well that's good news so the harness will charge the battery. Thanks for the info.

Well you will also need the small 30 amp fuse harness and ground strap for the battery.

Is the sled sdi or carbs.. that makes a difference.

I have the e-start installation instructions and parts list for non sdi if you want them.

They are for an 03 rev but I think all the parts are the same except the battery box.

Estart harness has a 5a fuse.

Do I need to pull the clutch to get the starter bolts in?

You need to pull the clutch to get the starter in.. unless you take off your y-pipe.

So pull the pipe, clutch, and the left side swaybar mount to access the hole in the front pan to install the bottom starter bolt.

 

[Tbone675]

You can get it in with the y pipe in and clutch on. Just pull the expansion pipe, and sway bar mount.

Although I will say pulling the clutch makes it much easier.

Especially when you drop that bottom bolt lol

 

[Cusefan77]

Pull the clutch bolt pour water down the hole tape the end of the bolt and screw the bolt back in till the clutch pops right?

 

[Cusefan77]

I got the starter in position by pulling the pipe and muffler.

This is almost guaranteed to happen!

Yes. Lots of Teflon tape though. Freaking amazing first time you do it!

Got it all in. motor turns over but won't start. I put the old harness in and it starts with the pull cord. could the relay be bad or the harness bad.

Did you check the 5 amp fuse in the harness and 30 amp at the battery?

 

[Cusefan77]

Yeah I tried both fuses. Both are good. It turns over no problem with estart just no spark. Switch to the old harness and it starts. I even pulled the relay on the old harness and it still starts. Could the relay be used for estart and its bad.

 

[TwoRevs]

Both harnesses use the same type relay
