Anyone know what the green box electrical part is called?
OK, I have established that on my 1999 SV650S there is a fuse which has melted into nothing in a green semi-clear fuse box with 2 large cables screwed onto the part which I presume is from the battery. It sits on the right hand side of the bike between the battery area and the fuel tank. It has 2 fuses inside and a load of wires coming from the top which are plugged in to the part. 2 large wires in the front.
I have a 30 amp fuse which has melted and the part still has much of it in there and so I need to replace it. Any ideas what this thing is called or where to look it up on a diagram? Thanks for the help... assuming anyone will or can. |

Starter solenoid, sometimes referred to as starter relay, also contains one fuse - the main fuse, the other is a spare 30A.

cool, cheers
Thanks for that. I just looked up a manual and downloaded it. It said the same thing. Does any one know if its easy to change by someone who is not good at this kind of thing... also, is it an expensive item?

Don't know about price, but it's easy to change:
Disconnect battery, remove battery and starter wires from solenoid - noting what went where, remove multi-plug, wiggle solenoid off it's rubber mounts, wiggle new one into place, replace wires and plug, reconnect battery. Don't forget to make sure the green placcy cover has the two heavy cables running through the hole in it.

Cool, does the part need to be for an SV or can it come from another suzuki. I remember reading about someone who used a GSXR regulator rectifier rather than an SV and it was about a 3rd of the cost of my SV part.
Does that work with these items too do you think... Im just starting to get into the concept that a bikes parts can be touched without it all blowing up! |

Hi Mark, is it new or old, SV 1999 or something else? What are you asking for it?
