yes .. thats the safety .. i would clean the connections on the brake switch plug and any of the connections on the brake light wiring and any other connections (wire plug connections ) on it that you can find and see if that will help ... my 350 rancher did this a time or 2 and i found corrosion (green gunk) in the connections and it quit after cleaning ... the brake switch may also be dirty and corroded ...

if you can find some electric grease and put it in toyr plugs and lightly on the contact areas it will help it not to happen again ... corrosion on electric parts and contacts is the biggest cause of problems on atv's .. it should be the first place people should look at for problems like this ...

Apparently that was the problem area. I removed the connections, cleaned and put back on..Problem solved.. Thanks for your help. Saved me a few bucks I"m sure.

      1999 Ranger 6x6 no start
      By realpilot
      I am unable to find a wiring diagram for this UTV.  When I turn the switch to on, the contractor does not engage.  The Brake pressure switch and the parking brake switches work correctly. What else should I be looking for?  All of the diagrams I have found are for newer models and the wire color coding is different.
       
      Thanks

      99 Bear tracker no neutral or reverse light or start button

      Just getting into this issue really. Been replacing solenoids but now I'd like to track down the problem. This time I'm not getting neutral/reverse lights or start button. Was on a creek ride when it started doing this recently. It cranks by arcing the solenoid and gives me no light or start button but if I crank with the pull cord....the neutral light and the button work. Turn it off and try to crank with the key and nothing. I'm looking into the safety switch issue tomorrow and re charging the battery. Just figured this was odd enough of a problem that you guys might be familiar. Thanks
