08 brute force wiring problem

[cody_davidson]

well pretty much my bike wont do anything. not even start. u can charge the battery for hours or til fully charged and still nothing. but if u pull start the bike it starts. but the disply flashes and the 2wd and4wd also flashes. and if u shut it off and try with the electric start still nothing. im just outta ideas.

From the service manual

I am guessing it's a carb because it's not a 750efi

Engine Doesn't Start, Starting Difficulty:
Starter motor not rotating :
Neutral switch trouble
Starter motor trouble
Battery voltage low
Relays not contacting or operating
Starter button not contacting
Wiring open or shorted
Ignition switch trouble
Engine stop switch trouble
Fuse blown

Here is a wiring diagram

turns out if you wash your quad as often as cody does (not at all lol) the fuse block takes a beating and connections cease to exist. quick fix: take out the fuse block and replace with in line fuses. worked for him.

Seen the fuse block and fan circuit breaker rot out on a few brutes. Thats one thing i don't like about then is the wire mess under the seat. Dielectric greess is your friend.

x2 any grease [ wheel bearing is what i use for all that stuff under the seat cause it own't wash off easy [ stay there ] ... and pack both sides of the fuses
