        I have a Smart Trac 284 I bought new back in 2007. Just wondering if there is a starter or starter solenoid that has an American automotive part that may fit it.

          That would be good information to know, if you find out please list the starter number you have and list what you find will fit. I was having trouble with mine but it ended up being the junk wiring and design the chinese use. I wired a seperate starter relay to power the starter instead of running the starter load thru the starter switch. And so far no more problems and that was done several years ago.

            Hi David,

            I read your reply to Nooie regarding the bypass of the OEM starting switch. I think this may solve the problem I have with my Yuchai dozer. I installed a new ignition switch but the tractor will still not start. To start it I have to use the “screwdriver” trick at the starter.

            Would you mind sending me a wiring diagram of your solution?

            I would greatly appreciate it.

            Thanks,

            Katfish.

              I can write it out what I did. I used hose clamps around the starter and attached a 3 lug ford type relay to the starter (of course you can attach some other place) . Take the battery cable off the starter motor and put it on the relay . Place a new cable to the other side of the relay to the starter where you pulled off lead. Take the wire from the starter that comes from the key switch  and move it to the relays small lug. It will be better if you use some like 10 gauge wire and ground the metal relay base to the battery or engine block if you use hose clamps  . This will not be necessary if you can bolt the relay to the frame . That should be good to go. hope this helps
