Bummer...  And here I am needing a wench... 

My problems aside though...  I don't think you would have blown your ECU by jumping the solenoid. Is that sorted now though ?

Could you post a picture of what wires you have in where the solenoid fits ?

A description of which one goes where if you can trace them would be handy too, but I'll have a look in some manuals and see what they usually have.

I couldn't find any diagrams of three post solenoids in any of my yank bike manuals..  Was the old solenoid three post ? and were they all being used ?

How many big wires have you got ? How many small ones ?

There is a service manual for  your quad in the downloads section. The wiring diagram illustrates a different solenoid than the pictured one  but I  gather from  it that  on that solenoid the red goes to the starter,  the black  is to  battery, and the small yellow wire would go into the connector with a yellow wire /red stripe. The small black/ white stripe would connect to the white/ red stripe wire on the machine.. There  is no connection from the machine to the post with the green top.

Those are only  guesses on my  part since the  solenoid looks different from the wiring diagram illustration  and the color coding on the small wires.

Your best bet to  be sure is to  go  to  a Bombardier/ Can-Am  dealer and ask their service people.

I find navigating through this site difficult since it's got a lot of advertisement but that aside maybe I can help you if you haven't resolved your solenoid wiring issue. Are you still trying to figure it out?

The two smallest wires are the trigger wires. The post that's painted red goes to the battery, the post that's painted black may or may not go to the starter motor, the same as with the green post. I can write you a procedure to actually test it and confirm before you install it. My background is a power engineer. Let me know if you still need help!?

      In search of my first ATV? What are good older 4x4 models?

      I’m brand new to 4 wheelers and just bought a 1987 Yamaha Moto 4 350. It has good compression and fuel, but no spark. I’ve looked high and low trying to find how to test all the components of the ignition system, but can’t find anything. This has a new CDI box on it, but I suspect it might be the stator. How do I test the stator on this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

      I have a 1990 Bayou 220 that runs pretty well for it's age--needs a new muffler, but sounds tough.    Have had to start with a pull cord since I got it, and recently started troubleshooting the start button.  Finding a lot of information on this issue in the forum, but haven't been able to chase it down yet.  Got a new battery, new starter solenoid, and going to replace the starter relay this week, but not convinced that's going to do the trick, since I can't get the neutral light on when turning the key on.  I can start it by jumping the solenoid, but the 2 black wires to the relay do not activate the starter.  Bad ground or a short somewhere?  Is there a good way to just test the ground?

      i just picked this up. was told ran fine but overheating issues led to replacing head gasket and head. has not ran since. he is not a mechanic but helped someone else who he could not get back to finish job, got aggravated and put up for sale. i was thinking timing issues. i have 110-120psi on all 3 cylinders so i think valves are correct. dont know about distributor yet. however i have no spark. i have no power going to ignition coil. tried to follow white wire but gets lost in wire harness. does anyone have a wiring diagram? can anyone tell me what conditions have to be met before starting. motor turns over so i would think all safeties are met but you never know.

      I finally got around to working on the TRX, this has been an ongoing problem with this machine. This is a machine that we keep on my Fathers property, i dont see it that often, my brother haad it professionally repaired last year and year before same problem, the new starter gears and bypass gears last about a year and the machine is not used that often, he said he was done with it , so i thought i should go take a look. Sure enough the gears were all malled again. 
       

       

      IMG_4910.mov   There is some slack in there but most is taken up by the gear cover,if anyone with history with these machines has had the same problem, let me know your findings. Where i am now im looking for finding replacement honda gears on Ebay and try those. I suspect the original was replaced with aftermarket gears years ago and they just worse quality as the years go by.
