400ex starting problems

[onestrong1]

I have a 00 440ex that i just replaced the battery and it was starting fine, one day out of the blue it would not roll over. I charged the battery and still nothing. After i pull start it and warm it up still no start. I was wondering if any suggestions where to start. Starters are a little pricy and not sure if thats the problem.

could be bad wires in your starter button.. there is a way to jump it with a screw driver but i dont know what the part is called.. ill take a pic and post it later

Did you fill the battery up with battery fuild?

Might have a bad silinoid (sp?) If your sitting on your quad it is right in front of you battery. There should be 2 posts. Try using a screw driver and starting your quad. If it starts it is bad or a loose connection.


Also check your fuse and make sure it isn't blown

ah yea.. fuse.. i forgot about those.. lol... but here is a pic of the what i was saying.. just turn they key and touch these together with a screwdriver.. if it starts then its a connection..

its a good place to start..
