i have an 04 450r and i wanted to know how to hook my fan back up so it works again. the previous owner hooked up a kill switch and removed the key assembly. i'm looking for a way to get the fan working again. my temp light doesn't come on at all. any help would be greatly appreciated thanx...

there are 4 wires coming from the harness thT the key switch plugs into. A red. black, green and black with a white stripe. You need to splice the red and black together and your fan and temp light will work again.

i took the hood off it and was tracing wires and i found a red and a black wire that have been cut and aren't connected to anything at the moment. if i splice theses two togehter this should fix it?? when i start my quad up after i splice the wires my light should come on for a few seconds right?? then i'll know it's working again right?? thanx for the help...i'll post back after i get a chance to try this out..

Yes. That is correct. Splice them together and everthing will work properly.
