2006 sportsman 500 EFI charging problem Help
Just put a new battery in my 500 EFI and checked voltage at the battery and it was 12.8 volts after charging the battery up. Ran the RPMS up to 3000 to 4000 while leaving my voltage tester on the battery and it did not go up at all. Doesn't seem like it is charging properly, does the battery have to discharge lower then 12 volts before it starts charging? I thought I would see about 14.5 volts on the meter but I did not.

charging problem
I did charge the battery for about 6 hours I have tried turning on the lights but still do not see any increase on my volt meter tonight I am going to try and discharge the battery by leaving the lights on for a while and then starting it up and check it with the volt meter. I don't know at what point the charging system starts up it may have to discharge first .
