Help! My TB250 won't start!
Hey. I went out on my Trailblazer 250 about 10 days ago in a minimal amount of mud. The next day I washed it with a hose and sponge, and afterwards, it took about 15 minutes to get it started. After it started I drove up and down the street for about 5 minutes and then turned it off, I immediately tried to start it again, and it started right up again. Well, I just took out of the garage after not starting it for the past week and a half, and now it won't start again! It won't even turn over. I need help, any suggestions? Oh, by the way, it is a 2004 Trailblazer 250 with no mods, if that helps. Thanks.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Help! My TB250 won't start!
I had to use the recoil to get it started the other day and then I let it run for a good 5 minutes and shut it off. Right afterwards, I tried starting it again with the key, and it started right up! But then the next day I tried to start it with the key, and it wouldn't start again. I am so frustrated. How does the battery keep dying? I am not leaving the lights on, and the run switch is always turned to off, so any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

The battery has a dead cell in it. The atv will not give a full charge on a dead battery. Thats why you can start it the within a few minuts but not the next day. When there is a low cell that means the other cells will constantly try to charge the low cell until they all even out but with a dead cell it will discharge the good cells. Get a new battery and you should be ok.

Thanks for the input guys. Just one more question: How could I have a dead battery cell already? I bought it brand new, and I have ridden it about 5 times (mostly up and down my street for 10 minutes). I am just curious so that if I do replace the battery, I don't want to get another dead cell and have to replace that one, too. Is it something I did wrong or just a fluke?
