Thnaks..its been about 6 degrees here the last few days..im thinking its time to start up the atv and let it run for about 10 minutes...since its been way to cold to ride the bike in the last couple weeks

If you have access to a current clamp. When you start the quad you will see a lot of current draw in one direction. After it starts (without moving the clamp) it should reverse and you should see a small amount as it's being charged.
