I've got a 2016 Yamaha Wolverine Rspec. Never had any problems until recently. It will turn over but will not crank. I have replaced the battery and put a new fuel pump on it and still has the same problem. One side note, you cannot hear the fuel pump prime like usual when you turn the key on. I thought the new fuel pump would solve this but still the same thing. Im thinking it's some kind of ECU or ignition problem or something. All the fuses are good. Anyone have any experiences or any ideas?

This bastard has gotten me more than I want to admit.

I hit it sometimes getting off just enough to cause a no start condition but it doesn't look off.

Lol

Swap headlight and fuel pump relay with each other. If that's not it go to wolverine forum and ask there. They'll walk you through it or you may find an existing thread

Air, fuel spark, like others said.
Easy to check them, if no spark, it is probably the CDI

*assuming the carburetor is clean

Is this Fuel injected or Carb? I would check spark first, then move back to fuel issue.

This past summer I had a Husquvarna chainsaw give me fits. It would spark intermittently and fire up. Took a while to figure it out. Changed out the ingnition module and she is like new.

Probably not the same situation but I left my 2005 Yamaha Rhino 660 on a hill one afternoon. Came back and it had rolled down the hill and hit a tree. Would not start and finally discovered the boot had come off the sparkplug.

So no fire. Pushed it back on and it started back up.

It has been a great buggy. No problems except usual wear and tear.

Hope you figure yours out.
