Zongshen Starter issue!!!
 

i finally got my starter working the brushes where stuck and not engaging well i got them freed up and got the starter working again well i noticed when i use it it sounds like its just spinning freely so i popped off the left case cover and everything is all lined up but i noticed the way the starter is spinning its is spinning the opposite direction and would cause the flywheel/magneto to spin clockwise instead of spinning counterclockwise and is has me puzzled! so i neeed some wise knowledge so i can get it fixed im starting to get tired of kicking the bike over and would be nice to have my electric start!

sounds like the positive and negative are reversed. if that is possible on this wiring harness.

yea i have no clue

i just got to thinking maybe i put the housing on backwards and it cause it to reverse ill give it a try in the morning an see what happens!

You must have reversed some electrical wiring somewhere, MM. ;)

Spud :)

yea thats what i thought a first but everything was fine and nothing was crossed but i toke the starter apart and flip the housing around and put it back on and it works good as new!

Sounds like an excellent inexpensive China-fix. 8)

I'm glad you got the problem fixed, MM. :D

Perhaps the previous owner switched something around? I doubt the starter motor was not assembled properly at the factory. ;)

Spud :)

yea im sure the previous owner did something cause there were hammer marks on the end plate so im sure he messed with it and messed it up the guy i got the bike from wasn't the brightest guy in the world!
