Product Overview

A single click with no starter rotation, intermittent cranking, or burned high-current terminals can point to a failed starter solenoid after battery condition, cable voltage drop, starter draw, fuses, and the start-control circuit are tested. This relay switches battery power to the starter on the listed Yamaha ATV and UTV applications.

Similar Yamaha solenoids can look alike while using different connectors, fuse holders, terminal positions, or mounting tabs. Match the number and physical layout—not only engine size—before connecting battery cables.

Key Features & Performance

  • 12V high-current starter switching
  • Integrated control connector for compatible Yamaha harnesses
  • Replacement for burned or intermittent solenoid contacts
  • Covers select Grizzly, Raptor, and Rhino families
  • Cross-references three common Yamaha relay numbers

Installation & Fitment

  • Disconnect the negative battery cable before touching the solenoid terminals
  • Test battery load, cable voltage drop, starter draw, and control voltage first
  • Label the battery and starter cables so they are not reversed
  • Match the fuse holder, connector, terminal spacing, and mounting tab to the original
  • Tighten terminals securely without twisting the studs, then verify cranking operation

Compatibility Notice

Northline Parts does its best to list all known compatible models, but the correct part may fit an application not shown.

Match the original 3B4, 1S3, or 5B4 relay number plus the control plug, fuse layout, stud spacing, cable orientation, and mounting tab. Model year, production date, serial number, trim, engine, installed options, and previous repairs can affect fitment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: If the solenoid clicks, is it definitely good? A: No. The coil can click while burned internal contacts fail to pass enough current; voltage-drop testing across the large studs will show the loss.

Q: Can a weak battery cause the same symptom? A: Yes. Load-test the battery and inspect both battery cables before replacing the relay.

Q: What should I compare before ordering? A: Match the original 3B4, 1S3, or 5B4 relay number plus the control plug, fuse layout, stud spacing, cable orientation, and mounting tab.

Q: Is this supplied by the original equipment manufacturer? A: No. This is a new aftermarket part. Brand names and reference numbers identify fitment only.

Package note: One starter relay solenoid is included with the fuse or terminal hardware shown in the photos.
