Pretty impressive work. My adult son (34), several months ago purchased 2004 Foreman ES 450 . He is not mechanically inclined thus had on his teenager hat ( from the days when he & dad went dirt biking & 4 wheeling),,, simply rode it, sounded good, thus he bought it. Moving forward, few weeks back he texted me stating it would only pull in 4 wheel drive. Thus I ultimately made a deal to Cash App him some money and bail him out of his problems, then made a 2 1/2 hour trip to pick up a project. Needless to say, rear axle & pinion will require replacement,, along with every moving suspension part in the front end. When I jacked it up the front wheels simply "flop" all around. Back in the day,, he and I had "3" dirt bikes and "2" 4wheelers, I maintained them,,but this was 18 + years ago since I last scratched my knuckles on TOYS. Here I go again,,currently working on the combination meter, as it was non-functioning when I got it,,after removing it, cleaning out the debris/corrosion with a "Q" tip, toothbrush and alcohol (rubbing,,,not about to pour my good stuff on it),, I managed to get all functions back working, although screen was sun burnt. Removed the polarization film from both sides of the inner lens with intentions of replacing it,, but somewhere along the way I have missed or gotten something out of whack. During last re-assembly the upper 4 lamps light up, the little LEDS along the sides light up when I turn headlamps on, but for the life of me am unable to get any of the display functions to light up ? Had taken it apart about 4 prior times ( just checking my progress along the way) and had all functions working ( gear selection, Odo, Trip, clock, Speedo, etc) and this last time ( as I was trying to determine as to the orientation of the replacement polarization film),,and display functions are dead. Any free suggestions are greatly appreciated. ,thanks in advance.
