Multiquip EM940720 Starter Solenoid

The Multiquip EM940720 Starter Solenoid is a genuine OEM component designed for the GA6HZ gasoline powered generator. As a direct OEM replacement, EM940720 is sourced from Multiquip and built to the same specification as the original part installed at the factory. This solenoid is confirmed for the GA6HZ series, making it a straightforward service replacement when the original unit fails or becomes unresponsive.

Key Features

• Correct Electrical Specification: — Engineered to deliver the precise switching voltage and current draw required to engage the GA6HZ starter motor reliably.
• Genuine OEM Sourcing: — Supplied directly through Multiquip's authorized parts network, ensuring this is the same solenoid used in original production builds.
• Direct-Fit Replacement: — Matches the original mounting configuration and terminal layout of the GA6HZ, allowing a clean swap without additional hardware or adaptation.
• Confirmed GA6HZ Fitment: — Verified compatibility with the GA6HZ gasoline powered generator series; use the model code to confirm fitment before ordering.
• Restores Dependable Starting: — A worn or failed solenoid prevents the starter motor from engaging, leaving the generator unable to start; replacing it with EM940720 restores normal starting operation.
• Electrical Safety Integrity: — A correctly rated solenoid prevents excessive current draw through the ignition circuit, protecting downstream electrical components from damage caused by a failing or incorrect unit.

The starter solenoid is an electromechanical switch that sits between the ignition circuit and the starter motor. When the operator turns the key or presses the start button, the solenoid receives a low-current signal and closes a high-current circuit that energizes the starter motor to crank the engine. When the solenoid begins to fail, symptoms typically include a clicking sound with no crank, intermittent starting, or a completely dead response when the start control is activated — all of which leave the generator out of service until the part is replaced.
