does it try to turn over and just die..or wont ever start?

 

Wont start at all or even try. Cant hear the fuel pump even kicking on

 

Im wondering if its a ground issue or ecu issue?

 

Faulty start button? Gearbox in neutral/park or pushing the brakes before starting?

 

Tried in neutral and park with and without pressing brake. Might be faulty start button but leaning towards electrical because u cant even see the mileage anymore.

 

Did you check your battery voltage
Next step is what does it do when you turn the key on ??? Will your headlights come on .. Faulty ignition switch maybe ???

Checked voltage and put different battery in it. When you turn the key on lights come on, display says Hi and maintenance required then nothing no mileage readout or anything. You should be able to push the button on the display to look at odometer but pushing it does nothing.

 

Sounds like ECM ( it had a brain fart ) if all grounds are good then off to the stealer . Check all plug connectors first before the dealer road trip

Did you try jumping it. Did you load test the battery or just check for voltage. Also are the neg. and poss. tight.

 

It's a stretch, but try removing the key several times and repeat the start cycle. The ecm may not be recognizing the key as it's mate. Also try your other key. You should have had 2 keys for it when you purchased it. My keys are programmed backwards, the grey is the standard key and the black is the low performance. Should have been the other way around.
Good Luck

 

Mine did that when I tried to start it after sitting for the winter in a garage. I took the key out, wiped it, put it back in and it worked fine. Hopefully that's all it is.

its weird his headlights will come on when the key is in there but the fuel pump wont start up

 

Didja check the air in the tire while having a beer! I was told that these things clear themselves out with the right amount of air in the tire and while drinking a beer (Sorry nothing I can think of other than the ECU being PMSd!

 

Try disconnecting battery hook the pos and neg cables together than hook battery up than try and start ECM may be confused

 

That makes me more confused than ever and on a higher level :wacko:

 

Now I'm no freaking rocket scientist. But a lot of ecms are like computers now and have small watch sized batteries backups in them. So by hooking the two cables together basically creates a dead short. Don't know that it would be a good thing to do.

Learn from my mistakes it's cheaper on you wallet!!!

I have done so much for so long with so little I am now qualified to do everything with nothing!!!

This is for everyone out there in Commander Land. You don't have to hang with the big dogs you just have to watch them play!!!

Poor men have poor ways!!!

When in doubt gas it you got to make it or break it.

 

That just drains the residual power from all circuits so when you hook the battery back up it is all reset and refreshes but most likely if the ECU is screwed up it will still be screwed up but its worth a try. You do the procedure on cars to clear and reset all circuits.

 

Just buy a B.U.D.S system than you really know what's going on with your machine

 

It happened to my 2013 1000 XT after,1 hour. Dealer, ridenow in Las Vegas replaced pump and pump electronics.

 

Thanks for the input guys. Im leaning towards the computer too. Ill try unhooking the battery and see what that does.

 

Does anyone know if there are any other grounds other than the ones by the battery??

 

There is one on driver side of motor on rear cylinder.
