Long story short, I purchased a basket case over the weekend. I spent most of last night repairing melted wires and generally tracking down everything. I am able to locate all the connectors but have a two pairs of blue and brown wires left over (one on a long pigtail, like it should be going to the back). The wiring schematic in the manual does not show them (though they are part of the factory harness) and I only find one indication of them in a US/Canada wiring schematic (Clymer, I believe) which does have them but it says they're for US only. Does anyone have an idea of what these wires are for and/or have them them hooked up to anything?

  Bayou, yes. This is the wiring diagram I used to patch everything back together with. There is no mention of blue wires outside of the one running from the coil to the CDI. I haven't had a chance to get this running to test the wires, so perhaps this is something which will show power when the quad is running? From what I can tell, the Black/Yellow wires serve as the ground for the starting system while the Brown wire serves as the ground for the lighting system. If these Blue wires do come from the CDI, then I can see them being for lighting of some sort. Does the Bayou have some sort of lighting capabilities beside the hi/low of the headlights and the marker/lights of the taillights?

      Hey guys and gals. I've been working on my friends 2007 big bear IRS. Unfortunately after 3 different people got their hands on it and only made things worse every time.  After months of finding just crazy problems everywhere. I'm finally at the point we're its almost 100% !!! But I'm getting a short somewhere between the 4xW switch I believe. I managed to by searching the internet like a  fiend, got my hands on an official Yamaha wire harness for the year and make. But I don't have the numbered component list and to be honest. After hours of going through and making everything so it's  easy to reference. If anyone has a picture of the referenced components. I would be forever in your debt. I've spent hours marking up the blown up diagram so it will be easy, for any possible future repairs. Please and thank you. Here's a picture of what i have so far.  Unsealed it in plastic so oil and crap won't spill or get smudged. This damn things worth it's weight in gold.              Thanks Jeff                2007 Yamaha big bear 400 IRS.       YFM40FBW

      Maybe someone has the answer to correct a long cranking but did start after maybe 10 seconds?
      Temp was mid 70's, with ATV not run for maybe a month but on battery maintainer with full bat charge noted.  The atv started, but then died a couple times after repeated attempts.  But when run awhile everything was ok.  Although when starting now I do hear the fuel pump humming but seems to take a few ,"long" seconds before full prime pressure.
      Is this typical of a failing fuel pump?
      I've priced a replacement fuel pump on eBay for less than $40 so am tempted to simply replace it for good PM.  Just had all covers off so looks really easy to replace.
      Any ideas?

      Hi, I am new to  this forum and I am happy to be here.  I purchased a Yamaha 350 Big Bear without a title and I cannot find a Vin number to find out what year it is.  I am hoping someone here can help me identify this atv. I checked on the main frame near the front A-arm left side found nothing.  I checked up near the radiator and found nothing.  Where else should I look?  See image below.
