2006 Yamaha Bruin 350 starting problem

Recommended Posts

Hello. I'm looking for some answers to this hopefully simple question. When I press the start button, I get this loud buzzing coming from the starter relay. I haven't ridden this beast in a couple of years, however it's been on a trckle charger the entire time. This thing has less than 2 hours on it!! I have misplaced my voltmeter and will have to go in to town to purchase another one. I wouldn't think it was the battery? But I'm new to these things. I'm mechanically inclined and refuse to take this thing in for service... heck I'm restoring a 68 Camaro in my garage! Thus the username.

Any help or direction will be greatly appreciated. I tried jumping the two main wires on the relay with no results. battery? Starter relay? When I get back from town, I'll post up the voltage at the terminals.

And while were at it, how easy is it to replace the pull starter rope? That is broken too! lol

Many thanks.

Robert

Okay update...

The battery is reading 7.3 volts! Not good. With the charger on it reads the standard 13.2 volts. I test the post at the relay and it gives me 13.2 with the charger hooked up. Should I just start with a new battery? Why wouldn't it kick over with the charger giving it 13.2 volts? When I do hit the start button the voltmeter is reading 153 volts? at the relay terminals.

Thanks.

If you use a regular battery charger with an output of 12 volts and hook it up to the atv battery and press the start button and it doesn't crank it will be your relay. between the two .If that isnt the case try this (((((((((hey check out my video on how I fixed mine.I had the same problem as you did and could not find no one online to answer my question so here it is, your welcome!!!!go to youtube channel (sublimed fixit)

      I have been exploring all the options available, so many, its hard to choose. I have kind of narrowed it down to the Honda Pilot, Subaru Outback, and Kind of looking at the Outlander, although its a little small,  the new one is nice looking. Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations or gripes with any of these rides. I have driven Jeeps for the past 25  years and they have been great, but their price point has gotten to high. Expieriences good or bad would be helpful. Thanks!

      It starts and runs Ok but after a while the temp gage lights up and the fan fails to start.  Any suggestions on where to start looking would be helpful.  Thanks

      Heres my story. Kinda long. I guess I was a late bloomer when it comes to quads. I had never ridden a quad in my life. Rode Dirt Bikes as a kid growing up. Back in Oct of '06 I found a Mustang on craigslist. Took it for a test drive one morning before work. Fast car. 351 Cleveland. I had planned on meeting the guy again after work. For some strange reason thats still to this day beyond me, I stopped in Hillsboro MotoSports on the way home from work. I had 6 Grand on me. There was a left over '05 sitting by the front door. It was on sale for $4999. It was $5499 OTD. I didnt even look at anything else. I knew nothing about quads accept I thought it really looked coool and I had the money in my pocket to buy it. I was sitting on it when the salesman walked up and asked... "Can I help you?" Without hestitation I pulled 60 Ben Franklins outta my front pocket and said "I want this Quad. Load it up in my truck." It was just about dark by the time I drove away from the shop. BTW, I didnt bother to ask my ol lady if I could buy it. LOL. Anyway, I took it by the house and showed her. She was kinda stunned but not mad. We drove over to a friend of mines house and unloaded it. I took it to the field across the street from his house. HOLY CHIT!!!!! I was surprised by the power. I had it for about 2 weeks and took it to Sand Lake. I was there a few hours and rolled it on a banked turn at the top of the bowl right before you get to the one-ways. When it rolled, I flew off and landed on my belly. The quad came bouncing and landed on my back. For a month I couldnt even walk. I was scared of it. I considered trading it for a 250EX. Went back to the shop. The salesman said..."Dude!!! You dont want a 250EX!!! Trust me. Just get used to it" I still wasnt convinced. I put it on craigslist for $4000. Calls were coming in. I had a guy that wanted to come look at it that evening. I decided to take it for one last ride at Browns Camp before I sold it. I was still afraid of it. After about 5 minutes I started feeling comfortable on it again. I decided right then, I loved my Honda 450 and would learn how to ride it instead of selling it. That was late Nov of '06. Work was slow for a Painter in Oregon. My new job everyday? Going to Browns Camp and ridding my Quad. I bought my Girl Friend an '02 Blaster. I rode my 450 for 4-6 hours almost every single day for 3 months. And yes, I know my way around Browns Camp pretty well. LOL. In March I bought her an '06 TRX250EX (Thank God I didnt trade my 450 for one of those) LOL Since then, I have become totally addicted to quads. I love them. Couldnt imagine not owning at least one quad. Luckily I have two. My "07 was $6500 OTD in July of '07. Bought it for my Girlfriend. Traded in her 250 EX. A month later we broke up. So, I wound up with two Honda 450's.

      Hello, would this be a good Master Link tool for pressing master link plate back on? I've seen others made of aluminum but thought this one might hold up better. Thanks! 🙂

      polaris 2008 50 outlaw automatic: got the 50 for free. would only run with chock on, replaced the carburator with new. I can't get the unit to an idle where the machine doesn't move forward. if I do get it to idle down within a few moments it will die. got something to try?
