Default ???RAPTOR WONT START???

went ridin today and got in the trails, shut her off and went to start it back up and nothing. no power no lights...etc so i jimmyed with all my gounds and most the wires i could get to on the trail but nothin. so i decided to see if i could just jump start it (thinking it wasnt gunna start) but it fired right up and then i had lights, i shut it off ...no start it has done this b4 but i would just mess with the wires under the cdi box and it would fire up but now its gotten worse and i dont know what it is anyone got NE ideas?

Sometimes corroison on the battery terminals can cause that.

Should have gotten a 400ex. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

If you're not getting any lights then its as if your battery is dead or not making a connection. Check your battery cables, especially the ground to the frame. You may also want to check the electrolyte level of your battery w/ a hydrometer or load test it just to make sure a cell isn't shorted out.

im pretty sure that the battery's ok but maybe not i hooked jumper cables to my truck and then to quad battery, without the truck being on that was enough to turn the lights and my e-fan on but when i hit the starter the start relay under the seat clicked and then no lights... i still dunno
