Sold. I am no longer working on it.

I havent had time to mess with it anymore. Have had too much other stuff going on. So at this point, I am trying to sell it for what I paid for it. let someone else have my project...lol

Havent had much chance to work on it again. Life takes precedent. But the positive battery cable broke at the fitting. So now gotta fix it. The new starter solenoid came in. Hoping to get back to testing in the next day or 2.

See picture, I am pointing to where the battery ground wire goes. It is on the pull start area, with a screw. Neutral Light I swapped the bulbs around, seems 1 is bad. The neutral light is on. I have 1 working bulb...lol Got a p/n to get another one? Neutral Safety Relay With key on. Only 1 black wire has 11.85 Seems the relay closes, but doesnt send power to the other black wire. Not sure how to take a continuity ready. I am not great at electrical stuff like that. I do good getting the volt reading. Not sure this matters since the dash light does come on. I can jump the 2 big posts on the starter and it will try to turn over, that is it. Just wont fire up.

Dash lights - still no dash lights. Maybe the lights are bad. Will have to check with meter.

Jumping the 2 big nuts. I did that the with a screw driver and it tries to turn over, but that is all it does. Battery 12.14 Starter Solenoid Post Battery Side 12.1 flucuates though Post Out Side nothing registers White 12.1 Brown 11.85 Black 11.85 New starter solenoid should arrive today at some point. Rusted out thingy - not sure the name of it. Relay. Brown - 11.85 Black - 11.85 Green - nothing Other Black - nothing

I jumped the 2 black wires. No crank. No neutral light. No head lights. No nothing. Not sure when my new starter solenoid will arrive. Starter solenoid has 3 wires, black, white and brown. I found my volt tester, but it is bad. So got to get a new one. Cant check for 12v on any wires yet. I even tried with clutch and brake levers pulled in. Nothing, no sound of any kind. Fuse is good on the solenoid. But it must be toasted.

So I got a battery in. 1 - Doing nothing else but connecting the battery cables. Nothing happens. 2 - I jump the 2 black wires. Same thing, nothing happens. Still waiting for the new starter solenoid to come in. I gotta find my tester to see if 12v is coming off the solenoid.

As far as a battery, everything I find on this 4 wheeler say this battery "Battery 12V 11AH YB10A-A2", is there a huge difference in batteries? Not easy finding that one.

@Frank Angerano Havent had a chance to do much. I dont have a garage. I live in the country. It has been raining. Still waiting on the new starter solenoid. Got a battery today. So havent been able to test yet. But what you posted, very good info to start with. Once I can test it, I will post my results.

First time using this forum. Owned a Kawasaki dirt bike once, had no issues. But I picked up this 4 wheeler at an auction. They stated it ran, but only needed a battery. Well I do not believe that was all true. Some pictures are attached. Not sure why, but the whole air filter stuff was removed. They had some small thing inserted as a make shift air filter. I purchased a battery to try this all out. Waiting to return it and get the proper size, as it was too big for the battery box. But here is my issue I had while the battery was connected. 1 - The lights on the steering column did not come on. Not sure if they work or not. 2 - The starter solenoid seems to be bad. I have a new one on order. 3 - In the pick, there is another rusted part. Not sure what that part is or what it is used for. 4 - What is the 12v rectifier? square bodied part. So when I hooked the battery up. Pushing the start button did nothing. Pulling the cord to try and pull start, it turned, but would never fire. I have put in a new spark plug as well, it looked worn out. With electric start, I crossed over the posts on the start solenoid, it turned over, but would never fire and start. I have read a few other threads and it stated something about needed the neutral light on. SOmething about a kill switch. Any help would be appreciated.
