2007 Eiger 400f 4 x 4 auto starting issues

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello everyone Little help PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

still working to get unit to fire up with new Ignition switch and found out starter slide and push button are OK (did so by using my trusty meter).

Under the seat of this unit is a fuse box it APPEARS that half of it is missing??????????? one side has a cover that say's fuse box and in it are 8 fuses. The other half has exposed connections but no holder for fuses like the left side or any plug etc.

there are 4 terminals in this "EXPOSED" section 1 has juice to it all the time and 3 are without juice. When I slide the bar to run and press the start button on the left steering handle I get a voltage reading from 1 of the 3 dead terminals showing me that voltage is comming out of that push button to the "exposed terminal.

I traced a wire (which reads voltage when i depress the starter push button-I striped the wire at the handle) coming from the push starter buttom and it goes to 1 of the 4 terminals in the OPEN section and when I depress the push starter buttom I get voltage to that terminal

Now am I to assume that because there is no fuse holder and fuses or a plug on the exposed side that is the reason that the starter is not engaging???????????? The voltage justs dead ends!!!

Bob you need to check the voltage at the battery . should be 12.6 volts. Then from the battery there should be a positive wire going to a regulator and from the regulator a wire going to the starter. Should have same volts going from battery to regulator. Nothing from regulator to starter until you push starter button and the same volts at stater.

Sounds to me like you are missing the Starter relay!! I'd be looking for a wiring diagram for that machine, or see if someone else has the same machine and can snap a picture of the fuse area you are describing.

Your right on the money!!! I am trying to find someone with the same quad a guy in this area just sold the same machine and I am trying to find him.

still think it's the starter relay 1 shop said ok but I KNOW you can not "Bench" test (what he did) that item it must be on the unit.

How do I find and get someone to do the picture thing off/from this web site???? TX BOB

welcome to QC!!!!and yes your starter relay should be next to your fuse box.... atleast tht is where its at on my ex

found out my quad was made in 07 but because of it's date of mfg'r it's considered an 08 --I think I found the part it's called a neutral relay and is part of the fise box. Rick's parts!!!
