it wont start. help me out.

[red4ever]

push starting the 250 sucks. im thinking the wiring harness is fried but thats an 80 dollar fix and i dont want to replace it if its not the problem. when the quad is off even with the ignition turned on it wont do anything at all. no lights or anything. of course once its running everything works and the starter still clicks if i hit the button so im sure/glad that its not the starter. and im positive my battery is fine. any input appreciated.

ok take ur seat off and go to ur battery there should be a wire with a red coverin on it take that off and use a wrench to make sure there touching and hold the starter button down while ur using the wrench to make sure there touching with the metals btw sparks may come out but thats normal

Yes you can, I've done it before.

I'd bet on the battery. make sure your terminals are clean.

:confused: :confused: mine won't

check the battery by touching the spark plug wile hitting the starter. If you get zapped you know it works. Just kidding about that but my friend did that after a rebuild because the engine just woundnt turn over

1-i know the battery is good and all my connections are good so i just dont know. im really betting on the wiring harness.
2-the 250 push starts easy if u have a hill you need to put it in third get it going and shift it into neutral or it wont start but doing it on flat ground is a ***** and its completely impossible alone.
3-its for sale
