Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

I can't remember what I need electically so I can start moped with the push button electric start instead of kick starting it. I need something that connects to a white connecter on end of wire that is together with a bunch of wires close to the kick start area and then it connects to a differnt area from that. If this seems confusing sorry. I just wish I remember what guy said I needed I bought moped from as he always used kick starter. If you got idea please reply.

Starter motor? Its in front of your engine

If you give the model and year of your scooter we can get an exact diagram (or you can download the service manual from this site).

This is an Elite SA50 diagram, but pretty representative of the entire starter circuit. You may ignore the red highlighting, it was for another posting. Honda is pretty consistent with wire colors in this area. Armed with a meter this diagram may be all that's needed to check out your system.

High side of the starter relay coil is tied to the brake light
Low side of starter relay is pulled to ground by the start button.

Starter motor itself has a 'white connector' as you describe, with a Green wire, and a Red/White stripe wire. Green wire should have a ring terminal and connect to one of the starter bolts.

funny I had same problem on both sprees I got the electric starts wouldn't work. The guy I bought it told me it was just dead batteries but after playing around for a while found that both had stuck starter pinions (which I got unstuck and they work proper now!) and one had a really dirty switch which was all rusty and I cleaned it all up all works great now!

Hello fellow honda forum community. I finally found out what I need to be able to start moped elelctrically. I need an electric choke bystarter and I got one ordered from e-bay and I should receive it next week. As I need to get this moped going one way or another. As kick start is messed up. ok things are a little better know. Doesn't seem so hopeless on this situation

You have to have the brake light on before the electric start will work.
