Looking for Solenoid Starter for BOBCAT compact tractor CT440

[Elena and Oleg]

Hi,
Trying to find solenoid to repair starter (bobcat part # 7010574) on my CT440 tractor.
Dealer offered whole starter for $522 and waiting time 2 weeks. Internet search gave me price $385.
But I want to find solenoid.
Starter itself is Valeo 1196451.
I saw a lot of solenoids on eBay but I'm not sure if I can buy any.
Did somebody have experience with this type of replacement/repair?
Thank you,
Elena.

A quick search finds the same ones you did, with the additional info on what else they fit, so maybe parts manuals can be consulted.

APPLICATIONS:

*THIS UNIT IS OEM VALEO*
BOBCAT SKID STEER CT450BC-ST
BOBCAT SKID STEER CT450 DIESEL 2.4L
DAEDONG TRACTOR W 2.4L 4 CYL DIESEL
KIOTI TRACTOR DK35
KIOTI TRACTOR DK40
KIOTI TRACTOR DK45
KIOTI TRACTOR DK50
MAHINDRA 2.4L DIESEL

If the main problem is the solenoid clicking and not engaging the starter, it might be able to be fixed by turning the copper bolt heads that act as the battery cable switch 180 degrees so that the un-eroded part contacts the disc. My forklift got that way; took 60 or so tries to get it to catch, turned those copper bolts and it's like new.

Yep; if the coil is good (here's hoping that the OP has tested it) you have the quick fix for many contactors.
