    This is great! Helped me to understand how everything works. I have an 02 Honda Rancher ES 4x4 that has always had this shifting issue(Rocking it usually fixed it). Just recently it locked up after putting on a new battery. The display shoes that it is in neutral and it will start but it does not move if I try to push it as it seems to be locked in gear and no response when I press the shift buttons. Angle Sensor has been replaced but this did not change anything. I am just getting the opportunity to start working on this again. Any suggestions?

    Hello, there is a problem on my 2008 Honda trx250tm ES fourtrax. the indicator on the display shows a different position compared to the position on the gearbox. for example on the screen it says that the gearbox is in first gear, but the gearbox is actually in neutral and the green light for neutral does not light up. when I press the small handle and the button down to put it in reverse, the green light for neutral comes on and the gearbox is in reverse gear. I note that I can't get the letter R on the screen at all. I changed the angle sensor but everything is the same. Does anyone have a solution?

    I have a Honda Rancher 2006 TRX350TE. You did not show connecting wires to the wires from the shift button box. I have eleven wires here : White / yellow stripe. White / blue stripe. Black / red stripe. According to your directions this last one for a 2006 should be a White / red stripe. I don’t have one that color. Should I use the Black / red stripe instead ? Just wanted to check before I cut wires !

    Hey Bubba. Thanks for the videos. You explain the problems and how to fix very well. I have a problem with an 07 Foreman 500 ES. When I bought it one of the problems was it would not shift. Trying to shift manually it was tight and would not move at all. After rebuilding the motor I could shift manually until the clutch cover bolts were tightened then it is just like it was when I got it. Can shift manually until the bolts are hand tightened then it starts to get harder and then stops. It's like something is in a bind. Have checked and rechecked several times. About to wear the cover out taking it off and back on. Have not mounted the motor on bike. Want to get it shifting manually first. Any ideas you have would be much appreciated.

    The foremans dont have issues like the older 420s did ... dont know why but my 500 still to this day has been under water and mud numerous of times and still works , but this seems more complicated than just to fix it. I mean at least you dont have to worry about it but you still eventually will lose a relay and it wont work

    • @bubbabaryl3422
      @bubbabaryl3422  2 года назад +1

      Many people have driven through deep water, and regretted it later. Do not be fooled by the youtube videos of ATVs in deep water, because almost all of them have problems after they did that. Ask Honda and they will tell you not to drive through water deeper than 1 foot.
      The Foreman 500 has as many problems as the Rancher 420, which in both cases is very few.
      Replacing the computer is very expensive, and it is difficult to remove the old computer and then install the new computer without bending/breaking some of the 50 or so pins. I have one Honda that I could not remove the old computer (without breaking it) because the connectors had glued themselves together with age.
      Replacing a relay is very cheap and easy.

    i put a bypass harness on this one.. got the shift motor to work. BUT.. the dam shift shaft does not return back to a neutral position. so when you go to shift to the next gear. it wont. unless you tap down first ever so slightly. THEN it will go to the next gear.. you have to do this with every gear. up or down. it's like the dam shift return spring is not strong enough to return the shaft back to a neutral position.. i put a NEW shift return spring in it. nothin..i even added a EXTRA shift return spring on the outside shift shaft.. still same problem... im at my wits fkn end with this thing. i got the harness off amazon. it has 2 relays on it.

      Honda designed the system so that the computer (ECU) only applies voltage for a quarter second or so. When you bypass the computer, the voltage stays on as long as you press the button. The Timer on the Bypass System (from subzerosound) will only apply voltage for a quarter second (just like the original design).

    • @bubbabaryl3422
      @bubbabaryl3422  9 месяцев назад

      A shift computer failure usually results in the gear number flashing "--". A clutch failure will shift gears with the gear number changing in the Display, but then the engine will rev as the clutch slips. Very different symptoms, but it may not be a bad idea to adjust the clutch anyway, though I have not adjusted my clutches on my 2000 Rancher and 2000 Foreman and they run great.

    I was a Honda motorcycle mechanic for 30 years I worked on thousands of 350,450,500 TRX electric shift & 400,500 hydrostatic models ... Honda did replace the computers on TRX400AT models because Honda thought they were bad but it was the actually the centrifugal clutch was the problem .. But we really never replaced any computers on TRX350 Ranchers or 450 , 500 Foremans .. Biggest problem was owners working on them themselves ..
    This video was useless showing the clutch cover off , it should have shown the kit being installed and then shifting up and down ..

      This video is more about the internal shift mechanism parts but nothing about the installation of wiring the bypass or how it performs after it's installed

      You did not buy from subzerosound because their kits are $60-100.
      They have free wiring installation support, and they will replace or refund on request.
