Re: Starter selaniod
Are you looking for a starter solenoid with the pushbutton on the bottom like the 6v? They may exist, but I don't know of a source. You can get a 12v solenoid that looks and operates like the 6v, but it doesn't have the push button.

Re: Starter selaniod
Looks like BOB shows what you are looking for. My only concern would be the price, seems a bit on the cheap side to me. If it works well, I would be interested in some feedback.
I can't tell from the description, but sounds like it may require a hot vs ground input to activate. At least that is how I understand "grounded base". An insolated solenoid requires a ground (starter button) to activate. A grounded solenoid requires a hot source (starter button) to activate. Last edited by JSeery; 09-02-2020 at 09:23 PM. |

Re: Starter selaniod
You can easily bump, or crank the engine over from under the hood by merely pressing on the button on the bottom of the solenoid. CAUTION: PUT TRANS IN NEUTRAL FIRST!*! DD

Re: Starter selaniod
Way handier is a remote starter cable. It clips to the starter button terminal on the solenoid and any ground. With it you can bump the starter from any position around the engine.

Re: Starter selaniod
Back "in the day" they were called (slang) a dead man's switch.

Re: Starter selaniod
Makes more sense than installing a new solenoid. That's what I use. (unless you have an arm stretcher)

Re: Starter selaniod
drolston, I am aware of the remote starter switch, and have a couple of them, but do not carry one in the car.

I'm trying really hard to understand just how a "remote starter cable", that you have to walk over to and get out of the tool box, unwind and untangle the wires, hook-up the two wires, USE IT, then unhook the two wires, wrap it back up, walk back over and put it away in the tool box, then walk back to the car again....what the hell is so friggen' "HANDIER" about that? C'mon Man! DD |

Re: Starter selaniod
i am using an old 6v push button switch with 12 v going thru it. when i first installed it, i mounted it on the firewall with the button on top, seemed more convenient like that. worked good many times, but finally one day stuck in the engage position, and luckily i did not have the battery cable tightened up. it seems the spring inside is not very powerful, and the unit needs a little help from gravity to pull it off the contacts. flipped it over, and have not had a problem since

Re: Starter selaniod
my view is, in the early stages of building a car from ground up, you will use that manual button a lot. after the car is a done deal and bugs are gone, maybe not so much. heck, most times the seat is one of the last things in, so isn't it easier to push a button under the hood?, and ya gotta buy one, so why not buy the one with the button?

Re: Starter selaniod
Sorry I could not answer as to where you could find that type of solenoid.
