200es Starting problems

[rugman316]

Hoping somebody can maybe point me in the right direction. I have a 200es that won't fire up with the electric start it just turns over forever but won't start but then with one pull of the rope it fires right up. The battery is fully charged and has a new spark plug. Any suggestions other than "just use the rope to start it" would be appreciated. Thanks

NOT uncommon.

Some folks buy new wiring harnesses and then admit it prob works because they went thru ALL connections, esp grounds.

sorry to be so flip, but I think I have a chimney fire.

hang in there

Chk neutral light, if it's not on elec start will not work.
but it may glow with the pull start...TWO separate circuits.


may be the 12 $ neutral safety switch. reverse limiter etc etc

The elec start has many more connections.

gotta check my woodstove

sounds like a freighttrain

CAN'T be good.

I just sold off 5 or 6 200es's last week because of that particular prob.
(we run a campground)

The search key on here will tell you most of what I just re iterated, with the exception of the chimney fire.

It's usually a no cost fix, just time and wire diagram, volt meter and more time.

I just wanted to give the es trike some hope and a giggle since no one else responded.

The nice thing about the 200 es trikes, it's usually more time than $$ t fix.
