Not sure about this one.  Can you try to explain in English? I’m sorry I don’t understand.   

[Romain Catinaud]

Ok i will try lol. I would like to know if there is an engine stop switch on yamaha 450 wolverine 2006 or not or there is only the main switch to stop it? Thanks

[Frank Angerano]

I would think there is only one switch to turn the engine off. There is a key switch as well. Have you located both? There should be nothing more.  

[Romain Catinaud]

No i've only found the key swictch wich is front on my eyes but not the switch to turn off I can't see it on the handlebar. My first problem is the engine doesn't start so fuel is ok, spark plug is wet, and engine would run nearly but not. Sparks on spark plug are ok. Fuses are ok so I was searchin' for security switches maybe? I'm searchin for atv repair manual soon..

[Frank Angerano]

It should be on the left side of the handle bar  it’s red. It’s right above the start button.

 It may be missing or the red switch cover is gone? Can you post a pic of that left side of the controls on the handlebars ? 

Should look like the pic attached.   

[Romain Catinaud]

Thank you for the pic friend, so mine look older than yours. I've got not picture instead but I will show you nearly

[Frank Angerano]

Are you sure of the year ? That picture/part is for a 2006

[Romain Catinaud]

Yes I'm sure it's writed on the serial card but it's also writed paoletti racing and 450 ztrail do you know what does it mean? 

[Frank Angerano]

No clue what that means. 

[Romain Catinaud]

Ok. Other thing when I get started the ATV I heared a big noise of steel back of engine clang clang clang so effraid during starter was running do you know what does it mean? ATV not started since too many times?

Thank you my friend😃

[Romain Catinaud]

Frank has promise pictures of my handlebar. On the left you can see 2 black wires which are for run the starter during I'm touching them because I have no starter swich

[Frank Angerano]

Ok that makes sense now.  That’s not the correct switch for that machine.   I would order a new switch or a used one from eBay. An original equipment  manufacturer  switch (Yamaha). The wires should all be color coded and match what wires are on the harness.  

I’m assuming someone put a cheaper switch on the bike because of the price of the right one.   I looked at a few switches on eBay and they run about $90 bucks. 

If the bike is in good shape I would do it. 

 

[Romain Catinaud]

Ok thak you very much I will search for it. Now I will also search the 2 wires R/B and R/W back of the radiator to be sure that CDI unit is not at ground and engine doesn't run. Thank you my friend I'll tell you later about my problem 😉

[davefrombc]

Is the  disconnected  cable on the left  for  the  choke  or  is it the  rear  brake  cable that  should be connected  to  the  lever on the  grip?.  The right  lever  with the  hydraulic  cylinder should be your  front  brakes ,  at  least that's the  way their set up  on most machines .

[Romain Catinaud]

Yes the left cable is for the choke but the system is broken so it doesn't hold now I have to pull up with my fingers if I would start engine, not really practice lol but I will repair it soon and the right lever is for front brake yes

 

[Frank Angerano]

I will take a look at the wiring diagram when i hey home.  Maybe I can help you sort it out.  Mean time post some pics of the wires by the radiator.
