Hi there, hope some one can help me? :werd:
I have a Sportsman 500 EFI, 2008 that won't start. I recently replaced the battery and it started fine but not now. When I turn the key to the first position the dash console lights up as normal but it does not make the initial sound - hard to describe but I have always said the "fuel injection" not sure if that what it is but it makes a small ticking sound for a few seconds and the same again when you switch it off.
When I turn the key to the second position it does absolutely nothing.
I have also noticed that for some reason the winch does not operate when the key is in the first position and only makes a loud click when I try to use it - not sure if this is relevant or not.
I have the one week old battery back on trickle charge, just in case the cold killed it but I really do not think this is the issue but I could be wrong.
Really hoping that someone online can help or better still live close by and is willing to help some one out before I have to take it to the dealer??
Regards
Mark
