How to Test an ATV Solenoid!

Step by Step!
In today's video, I'm going to be showing you how to test a solenoid.
This is the proper way to test any kind of solenoid, whether they are 3 or 4 prong solenoids.
For these tests, you'll need a Multimeter, a 12v source (I used a bettery booster) and some extra "leads" or multimeter cables come in handy!
Follow the steps in the video, and with a working solenoid, you should hear it click.
Just remember, even though you may hear it click, doesn't mean it's working as it should! So always do the 2nd test I show you, to test for continuity between the 2 terminals.
Stuff I used;
Solenoid: amzn.to/2GpjQ62
Multimeter: amzn.to/2pWh0ee
Battery: amzn.to/2Ilybwy

Great video..You killed it...Very informative and thorough. For example, When you were getting ready to check continuity...You showed which symbol was the symbol for continuity. You obviously know that many people that have multimeters would not have a clue which setting is for continuity and they have it just for a battery tester.. Again, Great Video and thanks.

Very informative video mate, you just saved me $119AU on buying a replacement Solenoid. I did all the tests in your video, it wasn't clicking when applying power but after a few gentle taps on the Solenoid it freed up the mechanism and begun to work. I re-installed it on my TRX300 and it started first kick. I understand that maybe the Solenoid maybe on it's way out hence the reason it failed for the first time. Thanks heaps for your great video!

I have one of the 110cc Chinese go-karts. It previously ran just fine but we let the battery go dead (really dead!) and allowed the kart to sit for a couple of years (under an ATV cover) outside. I just installed a new 12v battery and when I turn on the key (first notch, for electrical) I don't get any indication of power. Obviously, moving the key beyond that to the sping-loaded start position, still nothing happens. Honestly, I can't remember from the past when turning the key to the first position (electrical on) whether the solenoid would normally click, or not. Not sure if it's supposed to. Either way, it doesn't. When I jump the solenoid between the two posts, it turns the starter over directly off the battery (still no electrical shown on the dash). Does that sound like the solenoid? Your videos are great! I have subsicribed!

My Bayou 250 solenoid is different than these. It has six terminals and a 20amp fuse that also plugs into the solenoid. Two terminals are the big ones and then there are four small male blade terminals that a coupler from the quad plugs into. Wasn't sure how to test it. I'm sure it's bad because no click or anything when I hook it up. I have another and it clicks when the start button is pressed but starter mostly will not crank. Tapping the starter while holding the starter button gets it cranking, so I am going to replace starter.

The solenoid is just a switch, the 1 small wire provides 12v, and the other wire is ground. This engages the electronic magnet. Then the 12v big wire going to the 1 large post, is connected to the other post which has a big wire going to the starter. Grounded through the frame. Watch this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/npDZqmp6erecpMk

My 150cc got kart 2 wires to the starter solenoid are hot. I’ve already replaced the solenoid 3 times so I don’t think that’s it. The 2 wires stay hot the whole time it’s running. It will start and run but I have to hit start it because when I turn the key it only clicks. So after a hot start I’m golden I just unplug the starter solenoid and I’m good and wires aren’t hot anymore.

Can jumping the solenoid make it die ? My quad was riding yesterday pull starting and all but today it won’t even pull start. Before I was jumping the solenoid to make sure starter works then my kill switch button was not registering anything so I kept jumping to see if it would work and now it won’t start at all. Think it’s my kill switch or solenoid ? Or could I have did something else

Sounds like you have a parasitic load. With everything hooked up, disconnect your negative wire from your battery, place 1 lead from your multimeter on the disconnected battery cable, and the other end on your negative terminal on the battery. You should see a reading (when checking on low amperage setting) if there is a parasitic load. Usually it's auxiliary headlights or a winch that drains the battery.

My problem is different. My key is off and when the battery is hooked up the starter cranks and won't stop till I unkook the battery. It's a motorcycle and I replaced this last year with a cheap one from China it's sat all winter so I assume it's bad. Although I have no continuity through the posts. Cant imagine it being the starter button because it does it with the key off and button not pushed. I'll do more testing.

It can def still be the solenoid also. Just because they click don't mean all is working inside well. Just fixed mine today actually, hence why I'm here. But mine clicked when hit start button, but was from 94 when the 4wheeler was new and it was corroded severely. Tried cleaning it up, still clicked once everytime. Got new for $12, and swapped it out and bam 4wheeler fired rite up again. I tried tapping my starter with key on and button held and didnt notice any changes etc. But gl, sure u sorted it out by now

Hey I’m currently trying to fix my Yamaha 250 bear tracker, it has an electric start but it doesn’t work, so instead I just use the pull cord to get it going, but now that doesn’t work anymore. The biggest problem I see is the negative contact that connects with the solenoid isn’t in its correct spot, it looks as though it was yanked out of its spot, and half the wires in it are cut. If you want I can send you photos of the thing, I bought it off some guy for about 500, thought it would be an easy fix until I saw that the battery was held in place my bungee cords on top of a 2x4 that was tied to the back of the damn thing, I have no idea how to fix this, please help

Quick tip make sure the machine doesn't have an extra kill switch you are forgetting.

The connection is sticking due to corrosion most likely, I'd recommend getting a new solenoid!

Would the headlights still work if the solinoid is broken?

Yes, if the headlights don't work, it's probably a bad ground.

Great video. I have a 2000 Polaris 425 and sometimes I hear that clicking. I usually just need to toggle back and forth with the kill switch and it starts. This may just be a coincidence . I don't think my hand break needs to be engaged to start the engine. If I hear that clicking can I rule out the kill switch?
