Polaris Sportsman ATV Solenoid and Wiring Problems A Fail and A Win 

That was helpful just got a 400 with no sol. and wires hanging didnt know where the wires went now I do Thanks again

Thank you! I got my old quad running thanks to your video.

Sometimes it’s not the ECM but the plug&play connections. They vibrate and create arching especially on the power in and ground. Ground is the first to check. The mounting screws, threaded into the frame are to fine and loose contact over time do to vibration. Hence the front motor mount failing do to the same issue (vibration). Before sending the module out for repair or replacing with new check those contacts and the ground continuity. Also as an add of prevention use dielectric grease on the female contacts on each side of the module. The other, but not as critical is the location of the ECM, is the heat discharge from the radiator and the fan blowing excess heat directly onto the back of the ECM.

Clear as mud. Solenoid has four connectors. Two large, two small. Let’s call them 1&2 (large) and 3&4 (small). 1 - Battery +ve 2 - Starter. 3 - white with red stripe 4 - red (grey in your case). Or, are you saying red (grey) goes to +ve. If so, what connects to 4?

Check your pressure on your fuel pump and spark voltage. It’s turning over so that is a plus. So all that is left is fuel & spark !

Thank You, Great Job !

thanks ! I was having trouble with that gray wire it was broken an it did not look right it broke from the red wire don't figer

I’ve got a 1999 Polaris sports man I got as a project there are 7 wires hanging near the battery and starter solenoid and idk what any of them are

I have a 330 trail Boss Polaris someone unhooked some of the wires in the front of it and I can't for the life of me figure out where in the crap they go a lot of them are hot someone please help I like the diagram up online they are too blurry to see or read when you enlarge it

Trouble with my starter Everything is good but nothing when u hit the start button. New button also. Please help.

I just ordered exact same solenoid from Royal Distributing. Wired it in same as the original, went to connect battery and got sparks and the starter fired the machine up, even with key off. I’m wondering if my new solenoid is bad and stuck?

Where do the fuel tank foam strips for a 2001Sportsman 500 go? Does one wrap around the fill neck? Are the rightband left side the same? Most of mine was gone before I ever saw it

Same here. Same story

I have a 2001 arctic cat 500 with a blown solenoid. I have a pull cord though, should it run or does it need that main fuse that the solenoid houses to run?

same happen to me thats y im looking on this youtube my new Solenoid just click

Aim the camera please

Wtf is that rats nest on his head?

You're kind of you to make a video but don't explain what the fuck you're doing that's helpful but I watch this one

I can’t see s%%*
