Default It never ends, OPT help

Ok so I had wiring block that was bad so I had just inline fuses put in nice and neat drove it around it was perfect. Been in the garage a few weeks cranked it often and never did it do this.
Stayed up till 2 am putting the front diff and axles and plastics on. Today put the front tires on went to drive it as we are supposed to be heading to the redneck yacht club which is an atv park all weekend . So cranked it up and it's staying at 2900-3020 rpms I have to shut down the bike to shift. What could I have possibly have done to make the rpms that high????? This is getting ridiculous

Thanks hope it's something easy

First thing I'd do is trace the throttle cable from the housing all the way to the throttle body. Could be as simple as the cable binding around the throttle body area even if you do have the required 2mm slack on the etc switch and thumb throttle. If this all checks out,then could be down to the old t-bap or tps sensor harness wiring/connector short that can happen at any time.Just wiggle the sensor harness cables and see if you notice a change in idle.Sometimes this works and is a simple way of finding the problem.If you narrow it down to a harness problem don't forget this place.Only The Best

Well I must say I'm about done with Atv's for a few months. It turned out to be something with the throttle cable at the dealer, fixed it no problem. So riding for a few minutes it completely dies. No power then sometimes will come right back on and running then die and won't start then it will. I looked at the tbap sensor thread but doesn't sound like what was talked about. No codes show on cluster. So not sure where to go now but will probably drop it off at the shop. On a good note however that dealer gave me the side plate I needed to fix my front diff FREE. So that was cool.

On the day before I let my 10 550eps idle for a bit and got talking fishing with my neighbor and was gone a while . So I get back radiator fluid on ground fan running and engine stalled. I let it sit , punched myself in the face,( ok not really) added fluid went to crank and not a good sound. Threw the charger on at 6amp for an then cranked right up rode around, rode it again later then put it in garage. Pull it out and nothing cluster goes crazy when key is on, dealer stated it's in a "protect mode" so that's next yay.

Just can't win
