electric start won't work
 

1988 trail boss Polaris Replaced the starter and starter gear also the solenoid and ignition switch. Battery is good and starts right away once solenoid posts are jumped.

No lights on when key is turned also no headlight. Once the solenoid is jumped every works well but the head light pulses like the stator is doing all the work with out battery.

No need to post twice on the same subject..https://atvconnection.com/forums/pol...cate-post.html

Ok sorry
 

when I get a chance I'll look for the 20amp fuse by the battery in a plastic bag looking thing. Thank you for getting back to me so fast. As always you are the best.

Replaced the circuit breaker it was a ten amp breaker
still no push start.

Then spray some electrical cleaner in the left control switch and work the start button several times.Plus trace the wiring from the switch for shorts and that the connector is making good contact.

Ok cleaned that. Removed the start stop switch with two screws took apart and cleaned it. Replaced it on handle bars. Still nothing

As noted before. When I turn the key I get nothing no lights on the dash. Also if I get it to run by jumping the selaniod and turn the lights on they pulse. This whole thing happend out of know where. As a week ago if started fine.

Did you trace the switch wiring down into the main connector? The circuit breaker allows power to flow to the left control switch and from there to the indicator lights,etc. Check the harness between the circuit breaker and the control switch for any shorts plus check the switch itself to see if it has voltage reaching it.

No voltage is reaching the start button. No voltage to or from the circuit breaker either. Where does the circuit breaker go? Towards the battery side. This might be my issue. Once again thank you so much for helping all of us. You are an asset to this forum.

Sounds like that's your problem. One side of the breaker wire goes to the battery positive post,other side of the breaker feeds power to harness leading to the control switch and also the small solenoid wire that is powered up when you push the start button.
