My recon is having same shif problems will you let me know when you find out what the problem is or e-mail me so we can discuss this futher thayes@landmarkbuilders.com

Thanks Travis Hayes

 

First of all guys Check the fuse for the shift. Second remove the ECU located at the front of you ATV remove the connections and clean them then re-install the ECU that shold hopefully solve your problem

Where is the
fuse for the shifter located?

 

I checked all fuses all connections and replaced angle sensor but when I manauly shift it first gear blinks 3 times but it has a new angle sensor and blinking 3 times means angle sensor ????

 

There is a post ( recon Lights Blinking ) I have listed all the codes and what they mean. you can check it out and that will help you find the problem

Where is post located at?

 

The Haynes manual for my Foreman, which is also an ES model gives the following diagnostic codes:
Turn ignition on, then off, then back on
Flashes at gear position indicator::
0 system normal
1 ECU
2 shift switch
3 angle sensor
4 gear position switch
5 ECU motor (defective ECU)
6 ECU failsafe relay
7 ECU voltage converter circuit (defective ECU)
8 angle sensor, control motor or ECU
9 angle sensor or ECU
10 pulse generator
11 speed sensor or ECU

Found this earlier.

Anybody found the locations of the sensor and all the other little suggestions. New to this but my little recon is in need of help before I shoot it.
12 gear position switch or ECU

 

If anyone knows where the angle sensor is will you please let me know.I am getting a service manual tommorrow. Maybe I can find out what I am looking for.

 

My recon was doing the same thing. As I work on it I was wondering how do you keep the water out of electrical connections?

I removed the ECM and cleaned it and cleaned the connections and put it back together and the light stopped blinking and it appears to work fine now. I bet it was caused by water/mud in the connections, so I want to know what you use to keep water out of the connections.
Thanks,
