Review on Road Passion Starter Solenoid POLARIS by Ralph Banks

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Watch out for the weak plug. Replace before installation if necessary.

Solenoid appears to be of good quality. When installed on a Polaris Magnum 425 it was close to the original with a slight modification to the mounting point. Changing Polaris is very difficult, so I riveted it instead of messing around with a stupid torx screw. Then the fun begins. I tried plugging in a cable. The plug was too small and very thin. When it broke I tried installing a new plug and stripping the wire, it detached from the weak anchoring and detached from the soldered terminal. Ooooh, I'm under a quad with a soldering iron. Yes it worked then, but a decent wire and connector would be nice. My spare plug worked great and the solenoid works fine.
