Electric-start XTCs from 1997 carry code VX500XTCEA. The manual to work from is LIT-12618-SM-00.

Yamaha wrote it for the 1997 to 2001 seasons and for the broader V Max and SX line: SX 500R, SX 600R, SX 700R, V Max 500, 500 XT, 500 XTC, 500 XTC (Reverse), 500 XTC Deluxe (Elec. Start), V Max 600, 600 SX, 600 XT, 600 XTC, 600 XTC (Elec. Start), 600 XTR (Elec. Start + Reverse), V Max 700, 700 SX, VENTURE 500 and VENTURE 600.

Starter, battery and charging coverage matters on this variant, and it sits alongside the mechanical chapters with the diagrams for the circuit as built. Confirm the code, then follow the sequences and torque figures as printed. Nothing in the book assumes a later harness, so the diagrams match a 1997 sled as delivered.
