My ex bought a used 06 Rancher 400AT, that was used for one week, until it stopped shifting.
Now this quad has been sitting in my driveway broken for two years, and I am sick of looking at it! I replaced the angle sensor, tested the regulator, cleaned and greased all the plugs…etc. Nothing has changed. Does the ecm need reset when changing sensors? If so, where can I find the correct procedure? It flashes 12 times. It chugs in reverse, and won’t shift out of first.
One atv mechanic worked on it for a few hours, but didn’t seem interested in returning.
Another ATV mechanic from an actual Honda dealer told me it’s not worth fixing….
I am personally running out of Ideas…I do believe that the ecm is bad, but don’t really want to spend the money if that’s not the whole problem.
Now for the question of the hour…Does a Honda engine/trans exist, that is manual shift, and feasible to mount to this Rancher frame? I mean this Rancher looks brand spanking new…but
I’ve had it with this overly complicated pos design…and am willing to throw $2k at it to make it reliable, especially looking at the price of used quads.
