2006 Arctic Cat 500 Charging system problems


Recommended Posts

I have a 06 Arctic Cat 500. The battery keeps dying on me and never seems to charge no matter how long or hard I run it. The battery shows 6.33 volts on my handy dandy voltmeter. With the battery unhooked I can pull start it and it runs fine even with the lights on. When I check the voltage on the unhooked battery wires it shows around 2 volts. Any ideas?

      Just purchased this 4 wheeler in June, now I need to replace 1 wheel bearing, 2 boots (on rear), figure just do both sides bearing & boots. Was told it had 2" lift kit on it.Read some where might need to get different boots since lift. Want to do upper & lower. Any suggestions on how to tell if it's lifted & boots I need?

      I'm looking for a repair manual that's specifically for a 2016 Arctic Cat 500. I have looked in the downloads section and there's one but it's for 500,700 & 1000 models. When looking through it, things I'm trying to find to fix on my 500 is not specific for just that model, and it's geared more towards the 700 model. So, needless to say, it really isn't helping me. I really hope someone out there has one. Thanks.

      Hello,
      I have a 2022 Honda Rubicon and I have an issue where it won’t start, when I turn the key for power nothing lights up and it won’t start but the lights will turn on with the light switch, I’ve checked all fuses and they’re good, I don’t have a wiring schematic I’m not sure where to start, I checked the ignition fuse when I turn the key on and there’s no voltage there, I used a jumper wire from the batter to the top of the ignition fuse and then it works fine and starts fine but as soon as I turn the quad/key off it won’t start again until I jump the ignition fuse with battery power, just wondering if anyone could give me some tips where to go with this or if anyone has had the same issue, thank you.

      2000 Suzuki will not fire. Fresh fuel, new plug, has 170 pounds of compression, super hot blue spark, won't even fire if you put fuel directly into the spark plug hole. Carburetor has been cleaned. Any ideas? Thank you...
