Anyone know location and part number for the starter solenoid on a Tam?

I have an intermittent starting issue; all is good until ignition key turn to starter energising position when I just hear a click.

After a couple of retrys she starts perfectly.

Only occurs when she's cold.

Battery is new, all yellow, brown and black relays have been renewed.

It's either the ignition barrel (unlikely), immobiliser (unlikely), starter motor (possible) or starter solenoid.

Ta.

I get this occasionally, I was just going to replace the starter motor but it appears to have self healed for the time being.....

Don't think it's the starter motor as the engine turns over quickly once the current starts to flow.

Still looking for the part and location.

Bit of Googling indicates that it sits on the starter motor itself.

Looks like I'll have to get the ramps out and take the motor off for a clean.
