How to Test an ATV Starter!

In today's video, I'll be showing you how to bench test an ATV starter.
Disconnect your battery before doing any electrical work!
Then disconnect the starter cable at the solenoid (It should be the black wire) then you can unbolt your starter from the ATV housing.
Once the starter is on the work bench, you can either use a battery, or a battery booster to test it. Either way, you'll need a 12volt source of power!
I use an Eliminator 12v battery booster, because I can hook everything up 1st, and then flip the switch to provide the voltage necessary to engage the starter.
If you follow the steps in this video, it can potentially help you diagnose electrical issues, by what's known as a "Process of Elimination".

Thanks for watching!
MUY BUENA ESTA IMFORMACION ..GRACIAS MUY BUENA EXPLICACION ..SALUDOS
Great vids
Thanks man i have experienced the same issue today .
I have problem with my stater its ground, do i have to change the startes ?
The starter gear and ATV gear had timing marks. Do these have to be matched up?
Where is the video after the solenoid test? Where was the electrical issue?
Could the starter ingage and stop and lock a motor up on a 50cc 2 stroke??? Anyone know?
You should've checked the brushes inside the starter. My starter did the same, when taken out to test it spin freely but under load it won't spin. So I opened it and the brushes we're gone so ordered a new one.
That's a great point, under load would be different yes.
A wassup I have a raptor 250 that doesn’t start and makes like a taser noise coming from near the battery does any one have a idea of what the problem can be if so please let me home thank you
Eliminators beware when buying used ATV's either the seller is having difficulty getting parts or there is something seriously wrong with the ATV, it is a rare day when you can say i got a great deal on this quad! Nice simply video too bad for your customer there was the internal gear issue.
Our shop mainly work on Honda (we used to be a Honda dealer before the genius's at Honda went to power house) .. We turn Chinese ATV's away because tech info and parts are nearly impossible to get .. LOL .. The sprag clutch is probably bad in that engine ...
Hey. I have a 150cc gy6. I was having issues with it starting. Replaced solenoid Then the starter. I was good to go. However now two days later it acts like it wants to go but just not engaging. Then at times it will turn over and run great. Any thoughts.
electrical issue. Check ground and all wires. Might need to switch the startermotor wire to a new one. Since it worked recently.
For me, mine doesnt turn over, or click. The battery is fine because its charged completely and everything turns on. Should i just get a new starter or what?
Same problem. Did you you fix it?
sounds like to me that a few of the teeth on the flywheel are broken or stripped. that maybe the reason that you hear
clanking in the engine case.
best thing to do is to open it up and replace the broken part. then sell it to a super rich guy.
Do atv starters bump out to catch the gears?
I have same question. Mine spins on bench but doesn't pop out
it wasn't spinning on atv tho
Starter could be bad even if it spins... like bendix not fully extending
its the starter clutch
How much voltage Should be going to the starter, with a multimeter I'm getting 4 on mine
12v-13v is normal, you have a bad connection. Look for corrosion.
@@EliminatorPerformance I just replaced the starter along with the wire connecting it from the solenoid, and when I try to see voltage or resistance from the solenoid while holding the starter I'm getting -600 for resistance and nonsensical numbers for voltage, could that be a solenoid problem, me not understanding a multimeter or something else that you may know
I just checked resistance from battery to solenoid, spark plug to solenoid, starter to solenoid and the 2 clip ends and all read around 004, so I'm not sure what my issue is
@@ChillBrass sounds like the solenoid has resistance built up in it and it's weakening the voltage to starter. Watch the video I link below, and test resistance between the 2 posts when the solenoid is powered. ruclips.net/video/h_vy7DERing/видео.html
@@EliminatorPerformance just checked resistance between the 2 while powered and got from 70-100. Should I order a new solenoid? Also thank you so much for your help.
Hello
Chinese quads and almost worth the money.
You pay about 1/4 the price, then put the other 3/4 into maintenance 😂
Yup, one of those cases where the cost to repair exceeds the cost to replace.
Exactly, if I had to pull the engine and split the case, it wouldn't have been worth it!
It's a cheap quad and the parts are also dirt cheap. Don't say there's nothing you can do about it... you CAN order replacement parts from China or a american distributor of the brand.
Do you wear ur sunglasses at night ?
Yessir, I have a photosensitivity issue with my eyes, so I actually wear shaded prescription glasses all day and night, even when I drive. Thanks for watching!
its spinning has nothing to do with wiring or the starter
