working on dudes raptor....very neglected...sat for months....to start replaced carrier and axle....freed brakes up...and replaced oneway....new battery, ngk plug, oil and filter, cleaned air filter......and 2 ultra carb cleanings....now back together....hit the starter button and idles in a few revolutions....hit gas and its stuck in reverse rev limit....ground the bottom sensor as shown in a couple of raptor specialty web sites... and it still does it....can cdi cause this mode? i am at wits end....ive disconnected all sensors prior to the grounding and bypassing (attempting that is) limiter and sprayed with connection cleaner to ensure good contact.... i dont know what to do other than find another raptor and start swapping parts....any advise would be so helpful....thanks in advance!

 

oh yeah...and fresh 93 octane after flushing the tank....

 

and crossed the wires with the 10-100ohm resistor as shown on raptor tranny web site...

 

how about overheating a raptor.......has anyone ever done this?.....if so....did it go into a limp mode or rev limit mode?... maybe one of the heat/temp sensors is bad and sending signal to cpu....has this technology hit atvs yet?..this bike is really pissing me off....im ashamed to say it but i lost sleep on this one...

 

how about someone that just knows someone i could call? anyone?
