I own a Yamaha Bruin 350. Recently I went to show a buddy of my brothers how to ride ATV and when I told him to turn the key off so I could show him how to start the thing, the push to start button did absolutely NADA. I was wondering if any of you might have had this happen to you, and if so, what do I need to do to fix it?

Sincerely,
I am tired of pull starting my 4-wheeler

Thanks,
Doug

 

sounds like a wire came loose or something, id check your common connections

 

OK, the next time I'm at our place in the country, I will do just that. I'm just surprised at how fast something can go wrong as quick as it did. I had just started it 10 minutes earlier and had NO problems. I rode it around the place for a little while and when I got back to the house, my bro and his friend wanted to go riding so I went to show him everything he may need to know.....and viola, NO push button start.

Go Figure,
Doug

 

There should be 2 relays they get corroded just try wiggling the wire to them and or there is a fuse just for the celluloid for the starter it a glass fuse so look at that too

 

Thanks 20wanage, I will do just that.....this coming weekend. I apreciate the response from you guys.

Thanks Again,
Doug

 

My negative terminal connection wiggled loose this past weekend. (TWICE!) If your alternator is working fine, you won't notice until you turn it off and try to turn it back on...

 

Thanks Hebs & the rest of you that responded. I will try to check it out throughly this weekend.
