Sounds like one of the wires on the loom might have come undone, just run through the loom, especially all the wires to the ignition.If that fails, looking at the model, could potentially be a CDI failure. Good luck

SOURCE: ATV will not start. no power to lights, starter.

make sure that your battery terminals are clean and are making good connection, sometimes when alot of mud builds up on my bikes battery it wont start also try to start it by the recoil is it has one or the kick start cuz when the battery is dead and you stuck in the trails you can start it by this and it should start

if this doesnt work let me no

SOURCE: 2004 polaris predator 500 3 new batterys dying can't charge them

I hope you got this problem fixed, just happened to my predator, it was indeed the voltage regulator. I picked up a service manual that includes part numbers and installation procedures from www.promanuals.net for 15 bucks.

SOURCE: won't start after pulling safety tether Polaris Predator 90 2006

as long as the tether is back in correctly it should start. try checking the battery. if the battery is fine then look at the battry and make sure your tether wires arent shorted anywhere

05 Polaris predator 90cc cranks but wont start have changed all electrical parts an top end rebuild

Do not know where to begin. Does the engine have compression? Are the valves adjusted correctly? Is it getting fuel, fresh fuel? Is there a spare to the spark plug? Is voltage getting to the ignition system, all fuses ok?

My 2007 POLARIS PREDATOR 500 won't start

Hey Stephen,
It take three (3) things to make an internal combustion engine run,(assuming all internals are good)

1. A properly timed spark
2. Adequate compression >120psi
3. Proper air/fuel ratio

eliminate each one of these, one at a time... then you have the reason it won't run. That is how a professional diagnoses a problem

Nothing when turn key. Bought new battery and fully charged, installed, still nothing.

Hello,
The "ticking" you hear is probably the solenoid trying to "connect"
The solenoid is the round thing that is the first thing the large red cable from the battery runs to. There are more wires connected to the solenoid..the TWO big ones carry the power from the battery and then jump it to the BIG cable that goes directly to the starter. You can CAREFULLY "jump" the two big connectors ON the solenoid with a screwdriver ( CAREFUL - SPARKS WILL FLY!). If the motor turns over you have a bad solenoid. Key does not have to be on, you just want the motor to turn over. NO open fuel sources!! SPARKS WILL FLY WHEN YOU JUMP.
Try this and repost, let me know.

04 Polaris predator, I bought used last week. I put a new battery and new carb on it. It doesn't have power, won't start, and no spark with kick starter. Dead. Fuses,wires, look good. Any ideas

Did it have compression before you bought it?
No power to the electric starter? Then you probably have no power to the ignition system. I'd check battery connections. Is the battery going flat overnight? Some shorts. Is there an ignition with a key? Is the switch good? or all the connections good? Corrosion does some funny things. Fuses may look good but actually are not.

Polaris 570 started this morning fine .now it turns over but wont start .gas is full ,battery is full charge .

when you moved make sure you did not hit the kill switch that will not allow a spark .. the other thing you can try is to see if there is a spark. you can pick up a spark tester at any auto store

My 2007 polaris 450 sportsman used to start with the pull start 2nd pull,now it starts for a couple seconds and stalls ,does this three or 4 x then starts and runs fine,by the way it won't start with...

Could be time to replace battery, this is most likely the culprit. These fourwheelers are very picky when it comes to low power. Your starter is also most likely just fine, the clicking you hear is the solenoid on the starter, so your battery has some juice, but not enough amps to turn over the starter. Also If the fourwheeler has sat for a long time then you may just need to charge the battery. The 2007 is most likely fuel inject which uses even more fuel when running and it also has its own computer kind of like a PCM in a car or truck. These all need a good supply of power and the stator which is like an alternator usually needs the help of a fully charged battery to keep everything running properly. Also note, once you get a new battery or charge it in some cases the ATV should run smoother.

1996 Polaris Sportsman 400 Will Not Start

If your atv has been sitting this long, the carb is probably stopped up internally... take the carb to a qualified professional and have it cleaned and set...(take a few pictures so you know where all the hoses re-attach)

ALL it takes for an engine to run is:
1. A timed spark
2. Adequate compression
3. Proper fuel/air ratio delivered
