Battery issue,

[Nitroya]

My sled as no ignition power, checked battery reading 0 V, very weird for battery to that. Checked with ohmeter across main positive and negative leads 35 ohm, on my other burro I did the same test and read 117 ohm. I m thinking the positive circuit is going to ground somewhere. Is 35 ohm way low.

As anyone ever had a circuit ground that cause the battery to drain the low. I m verifying any possible circuit grounding as it is. Don t want to fry another battery.

Battery unhooked reads 0 (dc) volts?

 

[Nitroya]

Yeah 0 Volts un hooked and this is second battery, so I can illiminate bad battery possibility. I m isolating circuits today to locate that low ohm reading I m measuring. My other Nytro as much higher resistance right from the power leads of battery.

How long is it sitting between uses? are they freezing?

 

[Nitroya]

Couple days, I have two Nytro s parked same location, they re not freezing. With the power cables disconnected I get 25 ohm across the leads, and the other Nytro as 130 ohm. I know there has to be a partial short to ground. I have isolated cicuit from the fuse box s but haven't the specific circuit yet that's faultes.

Wondering if there s common electrical parts that are prown to fail in Nytro s.

Just finished chasing electrical issues with my 08 RTX. My wiring harness had rubbed through at the area right behind the primary clutch, in between the engine and the subframe. 4 wires were toast. Spliced and soldered and everything back to 100 %. Just an FYI.

That's been an issue for a few other on here before, but glad you found it!
I added an extra layer of the plastic wire loom on mine in that area and taped it in so it doesn't show. it's also been posted here before of the same issue happening where the harness passes the steering blocks on the top of the fuel tank. FYI
