2007 Suzuki Vinson blowing ignition fuse HELP!!!!!

Recommended Posts

I have a 2007 Suzuki Vinson 500, Semi-Auto, 4X4. I was riding it last winter in a couple inches of snow and a little ice. It ran perfect for a few hours and then starting a slight backfire for about 15 minutes I noticed the over heating light was on so I got ready to shut it off and before I could it shut off by itself. I let it cool down for about 3 hours then i went to restart it I got nothing, the display screen was completely blank and only the back light was on. I then checked the fuses and noticed the ignition fuse was blown I believe it was a 10 or 15 amp fuse so I replaced it then started it up it ran for about 5 minutes then cut off and blew the fuse again. I tried several times throughout the day giving it about an hour in between each start. After about 5 trys i put a 30 amp fuse in and still did the same thing. I let it sit for a couple days to dry everything out and tried again same thing blew the ignition fuse after about 5 minutes. So I then took apart all the electrical connections cleaned them and dried them and then once again tried and blew the ignition fuse. I do not know what could be causing this and havent been able to find any others with this issue. If anyone could be of any help I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks

The first thing you need to do is check all the wiring and switches for damage, or loose connections. It is likely that you have a dead short in the circuitry somewhere. A multimeter will be helpful when trying to chase down electrical problems like this. You may also want to try testing your ignition components, if you have a service manual, there will be some direct resistance tests you can perform on some of the components. If you don't have a service manual, I would strongly recommend purchasing one.

      1996 4x4 Timberwolf rearend width. Can someone with some knowledge of these machines answer this question for me please. Are all 4x4 timberwolves this narrow in the rearend? These tires are so close the right one actually rubs the muffler.  Thinking about seeing if there are any spacers out there for it. I need at least an inch more clearance.

      I have a 1988 Quadrunner 250 2wd. My brother in law sold it to my son for $20...had been sitting outside for several years. Got it home and had it running in about 30 mins. Ran it a bit and then went to looking at the carb as it was having trouble idling. Was getting it pretty close, then started losing spark...Also, it wouldn't start up every time...only about 1 in 5 tries. Anyway...now, it has what I can only describe as "intermittent" spark. I can get 1 light spark right when the start button is pressed and sometimes one when it's released...but none while cranking. 🤷‍♂️

      I have replaced the spark plug, ignition coil/wire, and traced wires best I can. I noticed a couple frayed wires at the pickup coil where it enters the case. So, now I have the cover off, stator and pickup coil out and trying to test the coil. I do have about 114 ohms resistance for pickup best I can tell. And I can read minute voltage when I drag a magnet across it. Could it still be bad? Can a bad ignition switch/button cause this? (I did have the switch off to oil the choke cable)...pulling rope makes no difference though...any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated!!! It's the intermittent part that's throwing me off!
