Accidentally left the key on and drained the battery. Put it on the trickle charge, came back several hours later, and it started. Left the trickle charger on there all night. Came in the next mourning and the battery was fully charged, but the starter does nothing when I hit the button. Head light comes on full power. Neutral light is nice and bright... Any ideas?

 

My warrior has the same problem, you should check inside the starter and make sure the seal isnt bad because my starter was full of oil from a bad seal....

 

also check your brushes in the starter its common for them to wear out

 

alot of times on the warrior once you drian the battery they will work the headlights, but won't turn the starter, even though it show full charge the are pretty much junk...

 

In these cases pmcc37, what was the solution?

 

yea, new battery, how old was your previous battery?

 

I think about a year old. How could I test that the battery is the problem?

 

Go to an auto parts store and have it load tested.

 

Well, I think I found the problem. The battery was strong enough to power the head lights but not powerful enough to trip the relay. Maunally tripped the relay with a screwdriver, and the second the starter motor tried to turn over, the lights went dim. Put some jumper cables on the battery and the atv fired right up. So like someone I think already said, I'll probably be buying a new battery, because I jump started it and then drove it around for a good half hour trying to get a charge back into it. Turned it off, then back on, off then back on. But, when I turned it off and walked away fro an hour, and came back, it was dead again. Thanks for the help everyone.
