i have an 89 suzuki lt230E quad runner, the electric start does not work, i found out the solenoid was bad and replaced it, new battery, replaced one wire that was toast. when you touch the hot lead to the main wire leading to the solenoid it turns over and starts, yet when you hook all wires to the solenoid it does nothing. when i first hooked the new one up the "neutral" light came on on the ignition, now it doesnt even bother. can anyone let me know a few things a can do to solve the problem? i have already tested every wire that leads to the solenoid and they are all thumbs up, when you run a screwdrive across the two posts jumping the solenoid it turns over. i cant find the problem, any help would be good. please email me at lilbam_skateszooyork@hotmail.com if you can help. i check my email daily while i come here once in a while
thanks, Levi

have you checked the start switch?
could be shorted out.
or the ignition switch could have a short.

When I get it started with the pull start and the engine is idling the neutral light flickers brightly but if I give it gas it dims away to almost nothing. If the engine is running the electric start will work you can hear it spin. Battery charger/teester is telling me 100% and it displays when I have a bad battery.

first i replaced my selinoid. then it was finding shorts left and right. retrace all the wires and make sure none of the coating melted and the wires are touching. i had about 6 wires in the front coming just off the starter switch that melted and were all touching. also make sure your ground wires are clean and tight.
