Axys starting issue

[BAC'S]

Have a 2016 Axys 800 went to fire it up last weekend pulled it over 20 times and nothing. pulled the hood and disconnected the harness and it started first pull so I reconnected the harness and nothing again. has anyone else ran in to this issue if so what caused it. I'm hoping it's not the ecu anyone have any suggestions on what it could be?

Thanks

The key was in the on position?

might be a long shot but it might be worth looking at your relays?... not sure if disconnecting the hood harness bypasses them or not but what the heck its worth a look, or if you have a spare try switching it with the two that are in it currently. good luck

ya checked the key and tether both were on. i'll look in to the relays as well.

disconnect your tether and try

Had the exact thing happen to my buddies axys, it ended up being the ****ty wiring harnesses getting water in them. Took all the plugs apart and filled them with dielectric grease and it worked fine.

This was the solution for mine.. also a 2016. After a couple years the tethers may stick.. mine is being replaced.

Key on, hold throttle wide open, pull start it. Should go. My friend had the same issue. Some kinda reset mechanism happens when you do this.

I thought it was key off, kill switch down and 3 pulls reset the sled?

I had to hold the throttle wide on my 16 a few times to start it.

It's 10 pulls, not 3

fellow i work with had that issue on Polaris. Had to hold the throttle open a bit to start His dealer fixed something with the throttle.

And you must only stand on right foot and pull with left hand

had those relays my the main harness plugs get water in them.. junk system.

Turns out it was a faulty tether once I disconnected it the sled started fine. It seems that the polaris tether could definitely be improved upon, has anyone looked at the new arctic cat magnetic tether? would it be possible to install on an axys without too much work?

BAC, just contact Teth-Air and get the new Phantom Laser tether. It works fantastic and you don't have to connect and disconnect a corded tether everytime you get off your sled! Also has a cool roll-over kill feature which has saved my bacon a few times from a spinning track. Well worth the $'s in my opinion.
