PostSubject: Rhino dead   Rhino dead EmptyTue Jan 11, 2011 6:05 pm

Hey guys I was in the middle of cutting a doughnut today when the rhino suddenly just dies dead stick. It would not restart and when i turn the key the battery only makes one click then all my gear indicator lights flash and thats it. Ive had it on the charger but that did nothing. I did get it to just turn over once but then it went back to the same thing. Is my battery shot or is there something im missing here? I checked all the fuses. If so anybody know where to pick a replacement up at without having to ship one? Thanks

Check the cables at the battery,on the starter and the ground wire to the engine.

I put the 50 amp charge to it and still nothing not even a click now. Spark plug isint loose and all my connections seem to be intact. I took my dyna CDI off and put the stock one back on it to see if that was it, still nothing so but the DYNA back in but now when i turn the key both my neutral and reverse light are on at the same time.... scratch

Check and see if the battery posts have any corrosion on them, we had a guy that had corrosion on the posts and it wouldnt do anything.
Also check the spark plug and see if it is corroded or has lots of black on it.

battery cables are fine no corrosion everything else works just no starting. Now it wont even click when i turn the key just the dash lights up and turn the key and no change. Even if the plug was bad it would still atleast try to turn?

I would check your ignition coil.....make sure everything is connected properly.....and if it is, i would pull it all apart and put dilectic(spelling) grease in all the electrical connections.

Try disconnecting the battery. Jump start to cables no battery.

Yeah, you are right. It did try to fire when the plug wire popped off. I should have read the post a little better. Hope you get it figured out. Sucks to have a machine that won't start.

Lights on everything works just no attempt to start. Unhooked the battery ran the lines straight to a 50 amp source and same thing. Figured out why the reverse light was on, one of the cdi plugs was not seated all the way. im gonna try bypassing the solenoid next like fast said.

Jumping the solenoid bypasses both switch and solenoid itsself.... if its a cdi,coil or something like that it would turn over but not start...
