I have a 2000 440ex Honda quad. I was riding out in the dones all morning then went to turn it off to talk to a friend then it wouldn't start back up. Normally the key is turned on when in neutral the light will come on, but now it doesn't. I have a good battery. I have no idea what is wrong, please HELP!

 

There is a fuse by the battery, take a look and hope that is it. It should have a spare fuse right there.

 

Check for a blown fuse first thing!! The starter and lights, including the neutral light are on that circuit. There is a spare fuse in the fuse holder. The EX is prone to pinched wires in the lighting, that will blow a fuse.

One thing people don't realize, is that the bike will PUSH START EVEN WITH THE FUSE BLOWN!! So, just pop the clutch and ride home!

 

I hope it's in nuetral. it might be sticking in a gear and u might not know it, is it an auto clutch?

 

I had the same problem with mine. I thought it was the battery but it wasnt. It could be the fuse or it could be the cillinoid.

 

I have looked at the fuse when i was in the dunes and the fuse was good maybe i pulled and looked at the spare and thought it was the correct one thank you this is my first quad this quad has won 15 trophys 2 3rd place and 2nd the last one is a division so it has a little wear and tear on it and i am a Marine as a Lance Corpral and have a family so I dont have alot of money so i am not looking to spend alot of money so maybe I did check the wrong one thank you

 

I have checked for a fuse but maybe i looked at the spare but why did it blow I dont know if there is a short because there is no broken wire anywhere please help

 

It is not in neutral it is not an auto clucth so i dont know what is wrong this is my 1st quad

 

I have looked at the fuse but it might be the cilliniod if that is how you spell it i will test it

 

Will it start and run if you push/pull start it?
