Default 06 Yfz 450

I need your guys advice. The return or drain if you will off the water pump will is draining fluid as soon as I turn on my quad. And my coolant temp sensor is coming on. I called local dealer and they said possible water pump... Should I try and replace parts or a full new pump?
Also, my electric fan never comes on. Has any one experienced this?

I think the waterpump is shot and my guess is to replace the whole thing. See what other opinions are out there first though.

I'm not sure what your saying. I can tell you, if it has coolant in it, often the waterpump will leak. The waterpump has a weep hole that will drip when it fails. They are easy to replace and not to expensive.
