The Genie 62412GT is a genuine OEM Motor Start Solenoid, 60511, APU built for Genie telescopic and articulating boom lifts including the S-100HD, S-120HD, SX-150, SX-180, SX-135 XC, Z-135/70, ZX-135/70, Z-80/60, and GTH-5021 R and GTH-5021 R IIIA telehandlers. As a factory-sourced component, it meets Genie's original design specifications for the APU (auxiliary power unit) starting circuit on these machines. Cross-reference part number 62412GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the correct solenoid for your serial number and configuration before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Electrical Specification — sourced directly from Genie, this solenoid matches the original switching capacity, coil resistance, and terminal configuration for the APU starting circuit on covered models.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — engineered to the same mounting envelope and connector profile as the original, allowing straightforward installation without modification.
- Broad Boom and Telehandler Coverage — fits Genie S and SX telescopic booms, Z and ZX articulating booms, and GTH telehandlers across multiple configurations and emission tiers.
- Reliable APU Engagement — a correctly functioning motor start solenoid delivers consistent current to the starter circuit; a failed unit prevents the APU from cranking, leaving the machine unable to operate auxiliary functions.
- Operational Safety — on large boom lifts and telehandlers, dependable APU starting is essential for maintaining platform and drive functions; using the correct OEM solenoid preserves circuit integrity and avoids intermittent starting faults.
A motor start solenoid acts as a high-current switch in the engine or APU starting circuit. When the operator initiates start, the solenoid receives a low-current signal from the control circuit and closes its internal contacts to pass the high current needed to spin the starter motor. If the solenoid fails — through worn contacts, a burned coil, or mechanical sticking — the starter motor receives no current and the APU will not crank, disabling any machine functions that depend on it. Replacing a faulty solenoid with the correct OEM part restores reliable starting and protects the broader electrical circuit from the overloads that undersized or mismatched components can introduce.
