Hey all,
Long time lurker, rare poster here.
I need some assistance. I'm having a heck of a weekend with my ATV. First, I went for a 10 mile ride with a wasp nest between my legs (they built it under the wheel well) and was wondering why I was getting swarmed every time I stopped or slowed down. Anyways, after dealing with that I went to go for a ride last night and ran into an issue. The battery was low, but still had juice. I got it started but ended up using the pull cord to save the battery. It stalled a couple times because I didn't use the choke (lazy) but then it fired up. When I was about to take off I gave it some gas and it died. Nothing on the instrument cluster, no lights, when I turn the key I get nothing. I'm relatively new to maintenance on this so I'm not sure where I should even begin to start. I should note when the key is in the on position, and i use the pull cord it doesn't start either.
I currently have it on the 40w solar panel charging but even after a while on that when I turn the key I get nothing.
Any ideas or suggestions would be helpful.. Thoughts??
