I really need some help here! I'm not getting any spark. I replaced the cdi and coil already and have ordered the stator. While inspecting the stator I noticed all of the pick up posts were dirty especially the ones on the bottom it looks there's alot of soot build up on there. Maybe messing with the performance..not sure? I was also reading about the ECM recall how can I tell if this one has been done? And would this cause the atv not to fire? Any help to my spark problem would be great..thanks in advance

 

Since you've already thrown parts at it may as well use them or keep for a rainy day if the stator doesn't solve the problem. Always best to have a manual to check electrical problems out before you just guess. And yes an ecm can cause all sort of problems.Here's a cheap manual for 5 bucks.2006 Polaris Sportsman 450 Service Manual PDF Download Also some still floating out there that haven't had the black Chinese ecm replaced under the recall.http://www.cpsc.gov/en/Recalls/2008/...o-Fire-Hazard/ Even if it has been replaced,they can fail again. If it's been replaced at least once it will look like this one.
