Hey I have a question my honda trx 300ex when I click the button I hear the clicking on the solenoid but it wont start sometimes could it be that the starter is bad or the solenoid

@therm-jn9cg 3 года назад

@@matthewsizemore3701 I think that it is more likely to be the solenoid, depending on the starters age. Solenoids are pretty cheap, I’d recommend you start with that.

@2vintage 3 года назад

@@matthewsizemore3701 do you have 12 volts on both terminals of the solenoid?

@matthewsizemore3701 3 года назад

It starts for me it's just sometimes it doesn't want like turn over I guess like all I hear is the clicking then the starter starts to work and it turns on so I need to replace the starter?

@shartne 3 года назад

You should be using Deoxit to clean your electrical contacts. Its simply the best corrosion cleaner. Not exactly cheap but for sale on ebay. Deoxit is magic. I use it on my cb radios pots. Take the starter off and lube it up that usually works wonders. Use lithium grease not wd40 it evaporates quickly.

I have a ltz400 (same as dvx). Mine had no compression when I got it, did the valves and runs great now. Fun quad tho. Btw stock swingarms are garbage and frames are also known to crack above the front shock mounts. Also trx450 front shocks bolt right in. Get rid of the pogo stick shocks that come on 03 and 04s

@Inkedup128 3 года назад

also you can jump the bike by bridging the solenoid bolts and that will help determine the starter or button also.

@ghostrider-gm2wg 3 года назад

Its a suzuki ltz 400 with arctic cat logos and plastics. Suzuki made them for Kawasaki, and arctic cat for three years. If you look at the sticker on the bottom of the frame it says made by suzuki I believe they made them from 04 to 07 if I'm not mistaken. The only thing different on the kawi and the Dvx are the plastics and headlights. Everything else is a suzuki ltz 400. Engines are pretty much bullet proof.

@chaseroach26 3 года назад

You have to watch with these bikes that the valves don’t get tight and you keep driving it. The cam sprocket are pressed onto the cam shaft and it will spin on the shaft and throw off the timing.

Yeah seems like the valves get tight pretty quick on these machines.

@mitchellstepan7215 3 года назад

If they are tight sand them down, if you couldn’t get a .05mm feeler in there take them out. Measure them, sand off.05mm then reinstall. Repeat till your in spec, just take your time or you will have to buy shims, either way it’s a guessing game since you couldn’t get a feeler gauge under it to see what your starting out at.

On some quads, you have to pull in the break leaver to start it. When you pull the break in it finishes the connection and allows the starter to crank over. it wont even crank over sometimes if the break isn't pulled in. The wire might be screwed up.

Would think it would be tile the 400ex where the carb pumps a little shot of gas into the cylinder when you hit the throttle idk if it’s on this carb but if it is maybe the plunger is bad & isn’t pumping that shot into the carb ? My 400ex starts on the coldest days because of that I just hit the throttle of few times like a old carbureted car & it fires right up lol
