King Quad 400 No go?

[ajcc]

My atv will not start . Has spark but no fuel and a f1 flashing light when trying to start.
Was working fine but today not starting. Fuel pump seems to pump ok.
Can I reset that fault light by disconnecting battery? Seems to have carburettor but is apparently fuel injected.

It won’t have a carb, you havnt pulled the rip cord out or knocked red switch off? Otherwise you will have to cross 2 wires to get fault code

Checked rip lanyard and kill switch look ok. Do you mean I have to cause a short to reset the fault??

No, you don’t need to reset it, if it’s on, theirs still a fault, you can cross 2 wires in diagnostic plug to show codes on dash

F1 is fuel supply fault
I have a 400 and the issue with mine is a bad connection on the wiring under the seat it would be a good idea to check it mine was just a bad connection
Previous to that I had the pump off and away to be checked and replaced the fuel filter

Does the light come on the bike stop and the led lights go out?

FI light is not fuel supply fault, it could be anything on the fuel injection system, if you carry feed on it, ide almost guarantee a chewed wire

Fuel injection system is a fuel supply fault

Ok fair enough, I meant I wont actually be a fuel supply issue but electrical, you need to read code to narrow it down

Mine had me baffled for a while it would run for some time fine then when it got hot and the fan kicked in it would stop and throw that code up
It was just a bad connection under the seat in the end but it can be hard finding an intermittent fault

Yer intermittent are the worst! That’s not actually the code, that comes up for any fault, the code will begin with a C, you can only see that with a laptop or by crossing wires in plug

I only looked at the light on the dash

This one would stop then come back on in a few seconds or minutes before we could even look for the problem it was ok again

Yer not ideal to find problem! To be fair they are excellent, very rare to have a sensor problem, normally always rodent damage or bad connection

I actually thought it was the filter at first when I changed it it was ok for about a fortnight then it happened again

There’s not much I don’t know about these now!! Only feeling chuffed cos I found and rectified the problem.(without even needing to remove the carburettor it doesn’t have!!)
A fuel pump corroded wire plug under the seat. . . Simple as.
