The last time we drove my 2018 Roxor was when I previously posted about the battery light coming on after driving through puddles. We parked in an unheated garage after, it went down to -10C for a few days. When I tried starting, it was warmer but still below freezing. The engine cranked for a split second then nothing since. I’ve checked the battery recharged it, replaced it, added jumpers to another just in case, nothing.
Checked fuses, plugs, relay, clutch switch, all good. There is power through to the starter main power but doesn’t seem to be any going to the solinoid when I turn the key. I have some help today so going to recheck it all. But am I missing something? I went through the repair manual for insight but nothing.

I have not run into it yet because mine is a 2022, but I have read about the older units going through starters. The solenoid is not sold separately from the starter.

Thanks. I've got an extra hand this morning so will try hammering the starter while trying to start.

Don’t hit it too hard, they really are not that hard to pull off then you can bench test it. I’m guessing you got some water in the starter and it froze/rusted up a little bit.
