Default No front wheel drive Honda foreman

Hi, I have an older foreman probably late 90's early 2000.

The kids were using it last week, now I have no drive to the front.
Is there an electrical switch like the reverse, a manual lever, or am I talking internal tranny problems that transfer power to the front.

It does not appear as if the front drive shaft is turning from the tranny end.

Any suggestions

Regards
Ted

May have stripped the splines on the driveshaft. You may have to pull the front differential and driveshaft and check them.

Thanks, for the input.
I have brought it indoors, thinking the same after I posed

Dirt gets in and wears the splines on both the drive shaft and the drive shaft joint .. This is a picture of the parts to check ..

Thanx for pick on the front housing.

I had another problem come up so I cannot get to this until Thursday evening.

I think you guys have given me enough to keep me busy.

I do hae a feeling it is going be up in the front end, or the dirt in the splines.

Regards
And thanks for the help
Ted
