I have a Bombardier Traxter Max that won't start.Turn keys everything lights up, turn key to start, all lights go out.and nothing else. Put in a new solenoid,cleaned and checked numerous fuses,cable and connections and after some one said it was the ignition switch, so bought a new one and just finished bringing it on. to no avail,has anybody got some hints for me?I need this ATV for winter.

 

3 things that come to mind.

#1. Bad battery. You need to load test this thing.
#2. Bad battery cable(s).
#3. Bad ground.

 

sorry just got back to here. I took battery out and checked it, it's reading almost 13 volts.took off cables cleaned and put back on.(including ground.) but still the same result.
how do you load test the battery?

 

Did a load test on battery and that was the problem solved. doctorturbo thanks for the tip. also learned something new. again many thanks.

 

Ahhhhh verdy good grasshopper for fawooing structions!!

You go to head of Bombardier ATV mechanics class.

Glad you got it fixed man, go have fun.
