We’ll show you how to determine why your Honda Rancher 420 won’t start in this video from Partzilla.com. There are a few points where the power from the battery to the starter can be interrupted, resulting in a no-start condition on your Rancher. Here, our Honda Rancher won’t even turn over.
John will guide you through what you need to check, starting with the most obvious problem: the battery. Then, we’ll make our way through the rest of the starting system, including the fuses, the stop switch, the start switch, and the starter relay.

THE BEST electrical diagnostic video I have ever watched. Kudos to you. I am saving this one.
Glad it was helpful!
Shopped with you recently and it was a perfect experience. I have this exact problem and with your instruction in this video I am going to the garage. Outstanding instructor's hands-on demonstration.
Lifesaver!! I was just in the middle of the woods checking Coyote traps, went to back up and it died. Wouldnt do anything but the screen was on so I followed your steps, checked fuses and then I realized when you said to check it, I hit the kill switch. Hopped on and rode out!! I never use that switch and I was about to hike back and get help but thanks to your video I checked that! Thank you !!!
Great video! I just posted my first Honda no start but I can really see how great your video is. Thanks!
Pure GOLD!
Thank you all to pieces!
DOUG out
GREAT PRESENTATION !. THANK YOU FOR THAT DEMONSTRATION, THIS WAS VERY INFOMATIVE AND EASY TO UNDERSTAND,. { YOU SIR WOULD MAKE A GOOD TEACHER FROM ONE TO ANOTHER !! }
just the video I need. Thanks for making it so simple
Great information I had good power at 30 amp main and at 10 amp ignition but no power to safety kill switch
Back tracked to fuse box and found ignition power wire chewed into 3/4 inch below fuse box
Thanks for the video
Really appreciate your videos.
you rock jt thanks for the knowledge!
Hey John! I would love to see a video for a coolant flush on that machine!
Great video. Any suggestions if when you turn the key on dash lights come on headlights come on and starter will cycle but no fuel pump. All fuses are good and it only did this when it was -20F. I pushed it in the garage with the heat on and 30 min later everything everything was back to normal?
Thank you.
Thank you! My Rancher stopped while riding and the ignition would not work. The indicator panel lit up and the lights still worked. I swapped out my 10 amp fuses with the spares and found the bad fuse.
Thanks for your help great job
Very helpful!
Thanks, well done video. 🙂 --Mark
Outstanding!
TXR420TE7: I was looking through videos about the location of the starter (my relay is a strong clicker) and found this well done video. Thank you for taking the time to share your expertise, I have subscribed and will order parts from you when I can.
Great to hear!
another great video
This video was very helpful.
Thank you
Hi John; always great video's. love watching them. always precise. i have a question if you don't mind. i have a honda rancher trx420 fe that doesn't idle down whatsoever. i have put so many new parts on it and yet it just want idle good. here is a run down of what i did. for starts a air filter--- new fuel rail---new injector---new IACV--new fuel pump---new fuel filter---new petcock---clean tank very well---new spark plug---and tried spraying contact cleaner around throttle body to see if it was sucking air anywhere while it was running. also no codes are flashing and does not idle well at all. kind of spit and sputter with high idle. any input would help thanks in advance
Do you have a video on rebuilding the starter on that 2012 420 ?
I have the same machine...don't need to rebuild mine...just wondering how to do it.
Looked for the rebuild kit on line...no luck finding one
Muchas gracias ese es mi problema i me diste la solución a ver tu video
Great info.
2000 rancher here. Starts in occasion with the electric start, on first pull with cord. Seem like the solenoid is clicking every time I try to start it. How likely do I have a bad starter?
Thank you 😌
hey so my green plug like the one you had to the starter relay wasnt giving out any power do you have any idea what it could be
Hi john, i have honda trx 500 no spark. If you used push button only cranking no spark, but you can used the manual by the rope have power and start the engine, what the problem? Pls answer my comment godbless
We have a Honda Rincon that we trained the fuel out of because I've been sitting for two plus years we put some new fuel in the tank and it turns over but won't start before draining the fuel it would actually start what can possibly be the issue
I have a TRX350 that won’t start. Any ideas on where to go after the starter. Everything up to and even the starter are good but it won’t start. Where should my next step be? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
I have a Honda Rubicon (Big Boy). It's a 2006 model that we use to ride and inspect our farm. We don't drive it enough. It has less than 150 miles on it. I drain most of the gas and disconnect the battery and run all the gas out of the carburetor for the winter. I've changed the oil once. My problem is that I cannot keep it running without the choke being in the on position. I can ride it around the yard with the choke in on position. The minute I stop to idle and turn the choke off, it dies out. It also dies out when I go from neutral to drive. It is also difficult to change gears. What do you think is the problem?
Hi,
I had mice chew the three wires coming from the engine to the rectifier/regulator and I don’t know which wire went to which now. Does it matter at all which one I connect them to? I’m assuming if they are all putting out 18 volts, it shouldn’t matter. I just want to be sure and not damage anything further. Thanks in advance.
Excellent video John. Thank you.
Do you ship to Canada?
Hi i’ve got a Honda TRX 350 2005 Went to start it today no ignition light blowing the main 30 amp fuse any suggestions thanks 👍
Mine does the clicking right now when I try and start it but won’t start. It’s a 2008 rancher 420, do you think it would be the starter since the solenoid still clicks?
Mine did this a week ago and it’s still not running we charged the battery and nothing but the sensor PBT-GF30 make like a tapping noise is that bad or should I just get a battery
Great video, well done. My machine is a Honda TRX400FA Four Trax Rancher ATMy problem is different in that the starter keeps trying to crank while I am driving it and after I shut everything off. Rani fine until I got caught in a rainstorm. Ever hear pf that problem? I cannot find a short making that happen but does not mean it does not exist. I plan to replace the solenoid since the machine was in a garage that burned a while back and some of the wires melted. That was when I got it and it has always run fine.
2004 is the year of the machine, I forgot that
hi got a rancher 1995 350 will crank with choke for thirty seconds then will backfire and cut of got any suggestions
system diagram shows two wires going to the CKP sensor. angel sensor is all I can find? thanks for the help.
I have a problem with a Honda 420 ATV with intermittent starting turns over but no starting have replaced battery spark plug and ignition switch. Any other ideas I have had many technicians look at with no luck including Honda dealer.😕
Yea mine turns over but can’t start. i have a 2013 rancher 420,, i did all what u did and check,, i spayed trottle cleaner and she started,whats the advise should i do? clean the trottle body?
I have the same model and year Honda rancher and mine will turn over when I try to start it but it will not start, do you know what would cause this?
Man I sure wish my machine was simple like this one was.
My Honda Rancher does everything you said it does but it just clicks so I'm assuming it's a bad starter or there's not enough power to the battery I never checked the voltage on the battery but should it jump with a jump starter and I clicked them to verify it's not the starter
Got a 99 foreman es have had no issues till now . Turn key turns over intermittent weak spark then starter sticks on even with key off have to disconnect batteries. New solenoid coil and icu nothing changed . I need help.
I have a 1998 Honda foreman trx450es, when I turn the key 🔑 on ot blows the engine fuse. Which is a 10 amp fuse. Do you know what can cause that to happen
hello I have a 1998 kawasaki klf 300 starter is good touching with screw driver it engages and turns engine over. but when I turn the key on they isn't any lights nothing no Starr nothing battery is being jumped with a fully charged jumper box . what should I test to get neutrals switched show up red green light show up..
Have a similar problem except after starting (relay and switch worjing ok) 10amp ignition fuse keeps blowing. Any suggestions?
How are you how can I connect the plug from the selenoid in the fuse boxe,because the new cables doesn't have the plugs
I have this problem on a 2010 honda rancher. I don't know if the battery is just dead. A mouse made a nest among all that wiring and stripped some of it. Bare wires showing. Should I keep going or take it to the Honda repair shop? I don't know anything about wiring.
I have a Honda Rancher 350, pull start works for about a week. I have to take it off, free spin it while hooked to battery. Then put it back on. It will pull start first time. What is causing this?
Where is the pgm/CDI on 2007 honda rancher TRX420TE located?
Is there a nuetral detection switch I didn't see mentioned? It won't start unless in nuetral
I have a 04 Honda Rancher 350 i can use the pull rope and it will start but when i use the starter it will not start but the starter is turn the motor ok but will not start why??
mine cranks but its not firing up and running it just cranks and cranks it back fired one time. ive cleaned the carburator put a new one on so im clueless now
Do you have a Visio on all of. The lights not working
I just replace the solenoid on my rancher and I have 12 v going to the starter does that mean the starter is bad because it's buzzing and not starting
That happend to me did you find out the problem
@@Joeysmith1 yeah starter
hello, I have a problem with a 2013 honda atv 420 fourtrax It is, on the screen it flashes 2 times slowly and then 2 times fast, which means and it does not give the electric gear, the angle sensor was changed and it still does not work, help
Turn my 18 rubicon on it makes a ticking noise and screen flashes nothing when I push start button. What might the issue be?
If I tested the relay switch and it's not lighting up what isn't I need to replace?
Honda trx420 fpm 2010 no spark. looking for the crank position sensor location. all other tests have proven but the sensor.
My 2013 Foreman 500 makes a clunking sound upon trying to start. Sometimes it makes the sounds and starts and sometimes is doesn’t but will usually start on 2nd attempt. Any thoughts on what the problem might be?
Ever figure it out? I'm having the same problem you described.
After riding my 2019 TRX 420 for just a few minutes... And then try to restart it it will not start until it cools. Any idea what cause would be?
How do you tell if your engine or top in is going out?
Hello I'm Donnie and I'm trying to figure out why my 4wheeler wants to crank up when I put a new battery in with the key off? Thanks Donnie
I wish someone could tell me why mine runs fine like normal no problems at all .. then all of a sudden it just dies like you hit the kill button looses all electrical ..then takes spells it will run a week without an issue then days it does it multiple times a day ...can someone please help ..
WHAT DO I SET THE MULTI METER ON?
DC voltage 12v
@@americanpatriot430 thank you
My 2021 trx 4x4 Honda 420 atv don't want to start. All fueses are good, lot's of spark's, just don't want to start. Need help.
Great video. I have tried everything in the video you mentioned including the starter relay. I am getting good signals from all tests. The battery is good (12.8 volts) and I get the click from the relay. I even tried a new starter and all I get in the click from the relay. Anyone have any ideas on what else it could be? Thanks.
Did you solve it? Good luck if not.
@@rogerthedodger5788 Yes, I solved it. The problem was with the starter. Just inexperience on my part. The Hondas are fairly easy to work on. I can't complain as mine is 8 years old and this is the only issue I have had to date. Still on original battery.
@@allenhance831just replaced the starter relay and having the same problem, did you just replace the starter?
I have one just like it and the gears do not fit, what could it be?
My son ran his honda Forman 500 very low on oil till engine cut off I think low oil sensor after adding oil still will not crank what di I need to do ???
Okay even after the click noise what suppose to happen next...because I can turn it on hit the starter button and get the click but no crank up
Awesome video and troubleshooting steps! Do you have steps on troubleshooting ES not shifting, dashes on dash, not fuel pump click or spark troubleshooting steps? I traced most of the wires, check the shift motor is good. Is it my ECM? Somebody left it in gear, used the kill switch, did not turn off key and cause the battery to go dead... How it all started..
I have the same exact problem, did you ever get yours figured out? Thanks
@@gyminit5 Yes, it was my ECM. I swapped the ECM from another 4W and solved my problem. Then I ordered one from Amazon. This worked for my model. HONDA 38770-HP5-603 PGM-FI UNIT
I have a 2017 Honda 420 foreman 4x4, runs for 5 mins. then dies, starts up, does same thing. No code shows
So my issue is when I turn my ignition switch to on and also the red start switch I either blow a fuse or have no power at all! Can’t figure it out 🙇🏼♂️🙇🏼♂️
I wished I could get you to work on my bike
Hey, I have a 2007 Honda rancher 420 which dose not start. the Battery is good no light come on and i do not hear the pump. what should I be checking for?
What was your fix? Mine currently does the same. Mine turns and turns but doesn’t seem to fire. My guess seems like the fuel pump isn’t getting power
Ok so when I Connect my battery terminals my fan cuts on even with the keys ignition
Do you all repair ATVs over there
How Ken prood the pomg
I'd like to know why mine runs fine one day and then the next it just dies like you hit the kill button sometimes it does it multiple times a day or it could go a week with no problems I can't find the problem ..anyone know?
Have a 2004 Honda rancher. Start a few times now won’t. Start. ? Have fuel it will turn over but won’t start.
I replaced the starter solenoid, but it still doesn't start, what about the starter relay switch
I have a 2010 Honda 420 and when I turn the key the fuel pump isn’t turning on and there’s are a line flashing where the gears show.
Customer just dropped off a rancher, get this , been to two mechanics. First one was running and “fixed”the piston. Next mechanic fixed drums brakes bc it was stalling.now it doesn’t run 🤣🤣 this guy loves throwing money away
Never had an issue with my 2016 rancher. I always shut off with the key. Went for a ride, shut off with the key. When to start up, display would not show N for neutral. Clicking noise under display. Disconnected the battery and reconnected. The display showed N for neutral, push the start button and the start solenoid clicks and starter doesn’t engage and display shows “-“ where neutral should be showing. Seems like an electrical issue with the display not showing N neutral. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Having exact same issue did you ever have this figured out?
@@thk98 it was my battery.
2012 won’t start neutral light is on
Flashing dash on instrument cluster will crank but not start
What do I check
I have tried everything you said and the solenoid clicks so I figured it was bad so I got new solenoid put it on and it clicks same as the original one...could it bad my starter is bad ?
Awesome video you put out there...i appreciate your help.
What did you figure out the problem was?
What if when I push the starter button the selinoid just buzzes
I have a Honda atv 420 rancher start and run for a few second and stop I think it is not getting fuel when I s pray quick start it run couple second and stop
