just got the grizzly back and the drive prob wash shiz in the clutch. All sorted now faster then ever. Elec prob still unsolved?? Theve been thro the whole loom cleaned all oxidised connections etc checked every connection . Checked regulater and stator all ok? Dying battery still accurs after a week of use????

Just like i said then.... so what was all that about the valves? does your battery go flat when its left for a week or if its being used?
|
SATVC
|
Both but seems to die quicker if its used????
If you use the headlights riding it dies very quick
Ive Tried riding with most things disconnected ie No winch, no indicators or hazzards, no lights???
Its been to 2 different dealers now and cost £200 looking for faults but both sent back said everythings ok???

ive a freind who had a 700 raptor and was going with a serious bad cough....tried a few things,,,ended up being a faulty dash which made the quad go bad
|
SATVC

how can you test this????
|
grae
|
Disconnect and run for a while..... or leave for a few days without running it, i've known the honda dash's to drain the battery when left....

it makes no difference?????
I've tested the voltage again at the battery whilst running on tick over
and I'm getting 12.3 volts?
i did the same test on 2 kodiaks and 1 wolverine Today and all were reading 14+ volts. Is there any way a stator could be fucked but still give some charge as I'm thinking this is what the prob is?? Its the only left I'm sure? Any way of testing the stator???

You have hit the nail on the head this is a problem I have had had before with yamaha where the charging side of the stator backs up. You should source a replacement or get it reconditioned and this will sort your problem. 12.3 volts will be just what your battery is holding no sign of charging there should be a least 12.8-13.2v if you were getting any charge. Dont no why the dealers you have already looked at didnt pick up on that pretty simple stuff. You should of bought up to inverness would of picked that up first time. I will dig out the guys number who I get to recon stators and send it to you in the morning. Hope this helps
 !THE QUAD GOD ! ( dashboard thing a bit far fetched as power supplied through feed from key so key off no power going to dash.)

anyway back to the subject!!
have just had the phone call!!
grae your always sooo right it was the stator arked out!
possible burnt due to running low on extremely hot oil!! Its being rewound as we speak as its cheaper than a new stator!

James

ant, there is going to be loads of quads there, i have asked round every forum (even that strange one called clubatc.co.uk) now imagine leading that many quads ant....you know you want to, i think everyones camping aswell, big fire lots of noise, that kind of thing

Big Jim

You are wasting your time James, he doesn't want to play.
I can borrow a van big enough to take both our quads but he still doesn't want to go.
Picking the QZ up today, will give it a few test rides over the next week or so, if it seems to be ok then I will come.

Have a heart . He's only just got it back and running properly again!!
From what I've heard so far , Johno's quad's was sick , Jimbo's quad was sick and Ant's was feeling poorly as well and Paul's quad didn't sound too healthy either from the vids. Tom's Farm looks a cool place but perhaps not too healthy for the quads( unless you're prepared to drive around some of the bigger puddles) ???
