I need some help with my Honda, It's a 01 400EX. It ran great while taking it out muddin. Well I brought it back covered in mud, and the next day, it wouldn't fire. I tested the plug wire, and there's no current. What the hell could the problem be if just the day before it ran great, and now all the sudden it won't fire?

Check fuses and wires. Find out if any are damaged. Also check coil.

had mine or 3 or 4 years, no prob's muddin, it dont hurt the quad at all. It just covers up everythign and makes the bike dirty. But yea do what the first guy said.

muddin = short/blown fuses, or bad/broken gorund somewhere. Or if it got hot your starter could have locked up

Hey guy's, thank's for all your help, it turns out it was my damn kill switch, although that's the first thing I checked, I didn't enough attention to it. It seems that even though the switch was in the middle, it has to be dead center to crank over. And now that I feel like a douchebag, I'm pissed. But it's again now. Thank's alot for your help guy's.
