ASK THE MXPERTS: KTM 300XC ELECTRIC STARTER?

My KTM 300XC Electric Starter Won't Start: Where Should I Start Looking?
  

Dear MXA,
    After a crash the electric starter on my KTM 300 two-stroke quit working. I know that MXA tested the KTM 300XC, do you have any special insight?

    Yes, we do. When you crashed your knee or the dirt hit the electric start button while the engine was running. This spiked the electrical system and burned out the 10-amp fuse in the airbox. Replace the fuse (you can get them at any auto parts store) and your electric starter will work again.
