2001 Polaris Scrambler - 4x4 Not Working ~ Help

[bigal87vert]

does the battery need to be in for 4x4 to engage

i don't think it does, once the motor is running the electrical is, or should be running from that. do your lights and gauges work without the battery while running?

[bigal87vert]

yes also my key does not bounce back it just goes to off and on

i can start it jumping the solinoid also have n0 4x4 indicater lights

solenoid/starter relay is probably shot then. i'm not sure if the polaris have an actuator switch (electric) that engages the 4 wheel ... trace the wires from the 4 wheel button on the handlebars if you can, the wire might have gotten clipped, bent, broken or have a bad connection ...
