Buying short block “w/ shot” ... What else needed to add SHOT start?

[posmx]

Blew up my 2017 850 (no shot start).
Instead of rebuilding, I decided it’s a better route to just order a short block because of all the unknowns.
Anyways- I can order a “no shot short block”, or a “short block w/ shot”....
Question is- if I order the one with shot, what else is needed besides the obvious button/wiring to add it to my sled?


Also another question- I’m looking at ordering the updated 2019 short block. To my understanding it’s the same design & bolts right in. Can someone confirm?

Thanks-

you would need a new ecu, so too much money, which is why it is not available to be added to a sled

I had a 2017 summit. Tried poking my dealer for parts to do a retrofit but by the time you totaled up the parts, wiring harness, ECU, etc it wasn't worth it. If I recall there are parts that can't be purchased outright so you'd need to find them from totaled sleds and hope they're still usable.

This was the closest I found, but still requires most of the e-start components

Kinda "SHOT" system for the 2017's

2017 Summit X 850 Estart now Capstart

The info in this thread is similar to "kinda shot" but specific to the Eaton PowerStor XVM 16V 65F (EDLC) capacitor purchased from DigiKey and delivered to Edmonton for $229.00 including GST. Install is very straight forward and takes about 1/2 hour the first time: remove the two battery cover...
