1998 Polaris 500 selenoid issues
Okay so to start my 500 went down about a month ago. Come to find out it was the stator.
Well as I was reconnecting and putting everything back together, I noticed the threads on both "poles" on the selenoid were stripped. So I took it off and took it apart and put new very similar bolts in.. where the red wire goes into the selenoid, I didn't notice it was attached to anything. Long story short, I can only start the ATV by jumping the selenoid aka skrew driver. I'm wondering what I did wrong? Any ideas?

Will do. Rain is about to let up and I'm gonna pull her off real quick. I gotta say thanks for telling me flat out I just needed to read a dang manual a few weeks ago. In this month my 500 was down, I carried my manual with me and read it any chance I got. And it was for the best...I almost lost my sanity for real. Lol. Money was too tight to pay someone but I was in dire need of my own fix of riding. I almost fell over the first time she started up a few days ago. Again, thanks. Will post a picture in just a minute
