Hi
My 500 lc will not start with the e-start.
It will just smoke a little on the negative side of the battery if I quickly try to start it.
Battery is new and charged, although it might be a month ago or something
The wires in the white "cube" that goes in the relay seem to have corrosion/oxidazion on them, is this what stops the current from flowing? Where can I get a new "cube"?

If your getting smoke you have a dead short somewhere and thats bad. It may be as simple as really bad corrosion causing the short. Im not sure what the white cube is your talking about. There is just a relay? I would take all that apart and really clean all connections well and try again. Including battery posts!
Battery is new. The white cube is the white contact that goes into the relay. I figured it has to be a dead starter motor, because I bypassed the relay alltogether and gave the minus on the battery to ground and the plus to the starter motor.
pull the starter and test it on the bench. might just be a bad cable too.
