    2005 Yamaha RS Vector wont start FIXED!!!

    Hey Fivestarlandscapes... glad to hear you are sled-ready again. I just want to clarify one thing... I am running an aftermarket stator just fine... the issue I found was that the leads from their pickup coil was reversed in the attached connector. They're only held in by plastic tabs so if...

    2006 RS Vector not running right

    What sort of resistance are are you seeing on your Throttle Position Sensor as you depress throttle? Between pins 2 and 3.. 1 2 3 At the connector on carb side measure the resistance between 1-3 1st. I think in the 4-6Kohm range. Then measure the resistance between 2-3 and watch the...

    Sled moves forward without pressing throttle

    All good info...had a buddy that had buildup on his primary clutch where it slides for engagement/disengagement... a good cleaning helped alot for him.

    2005 VECTOR TORS Help PLEASE HELP!!!

    So a few things pop into mind, a couple already mentioned. The single wires going to your throttle switch in a steady-state should have an open when you test continuity. If you press the throttle the switch should close and continuity would be achieved. So starting should always have an open...

    No spark, cranks good.

    I had a problem with a non OEM pickup coil where the wire leads into the connector were swapped by manufacturer. I used a brad nail to remove the leads from the connector and swap their positions. FIRED right up. On my 05 Rs venture you couldn't adjust the gap.

    Did you check your main Engine Ground... while u r in there always check your ground connections for good and snug.

    08 Vector no start, no gauges, no nothing

    Before you order a kill switch.... the mate connector for the kill switch...should be females.. If you have a brad nail u can bend insert an end into each of the females to simulate a closed (ON) Kill switch providing continuity in the circuit. Then try starting. IF NADA... chances are Kill...

    08 Vector no start, no gauges, no nothing

    On the starting relay there should be 2x 30A fuses. One is live the other is a spare. Are they both good? Agree on the Kill Switch... pull up and use a continuity tester to see if in an "open" condition exists. You want continuity with that UP. You might have a bad key switch too. Simple...

    05 RS Vector stator fixed

    Yes exactly! If it is wired incorrectly it's like your example of a no connect. You should see the troubleshooting I went through before it dawned on me to try that. I did everything in the Service Manual and then I had completely removed the harness and rechecked every wire for...

    05 RS Vector stator fixed

    Hey all... I had the same friggin issue with an aftermarket Stator/pickup coil combo until i spent an hour (ok maybe 3) going over the ignition wiring diagram only to realize that the 2 leads on the pickup coils MUST connect to specific CDI pins. I used a small brad nail and removed the leads...

    08 Vector no start, no gauges, no nothing

    Does it sound like...ninininininin and nothing else - no snap no pop? If so, see if your sled has a pickup coil as part of the stator assembly. Chances are it may have gone south on you even if resistance measures ok. Be careful installing a new one as leads must connect to specific ports on...

    HELP RX1 cold start issues

    Well it sounds to me your issue is electrical especially if you have lots of fuel. So chances are its related to weak spark and if I were a betting man I would say it's your pickup coil that is on the way out (even if resistance is good). My sled, 2005 RS Venture, went from hero to zero and...

    2005 Yamaha RS Vector wont start FIXED!!!

    FIX #2 : Well let me say that I have had the same problem with my 2005 RS Venture. I won't go into all the painful expletives spoken while troubleshooting this mis-adVenture. Let me mention this - I originally expected the pickup coil to be the culprit and I did replace it with an RM Stator...
