I was cleaning my four wheeler and when I was drying it off I heard something shorting out. This wire(was taped) was smoking. Apparently it was cut or chewed. I unrolled the electrical tape to find what I assume to be red(hot), green ( ground) and 3 yellow wires all exposed. What the frick to do now? Any suggestions? Not sure which yellow goes with which. They are not labeled.

I was expecting a weed thread. I love a good weed thread.

OB and you can begin by tracing those wires back to their destinations...they are likely controls of some sort with your beginning probably up around your handle bars and your destination at whatever mechanism is to be controlled...


in addition, Honda may have wiring diagrams for your year model...prolly not for free though....or...

find a buddy with a similar bike and see how his looks....


I had an 04 Rancher AT...badass mofo that would go anywhere....good luck...

that is the rear of your bike correct?

what is your hand touching?...do the wires go up into it?
