Picked up Chinese ATV, need help please, no power
I just picked up a Chinese 50cc ATV (not sure what it is) the other day, it was trying to turn over but wasn’t getting fuel, I ordered a new carb and while I was waiting I removed the fairings because I was going to paint them and I had to remove the ignition switch and like an idiot I didn’t disconnect it at the clip and instead I took it apart from the fairing and I thought I messed it up (it fell apart on me), because I put the new carb in tonight and went to start it up and I had nothing, no power at all…
Battery is good, brand new, fully charged, so I just assumed the ignition was bad cuz it fell apart on me and I attempted to put it back together, so I was doing reading online and said you could cut the wires and hot wire it to get power and start it, so I cut the wires and connected the red wire to the black wire, and still nothing at all. I ordered a complete electronics kit with ignition switch for this thing.. any ideas on what it could be? I’m not fantastic with electrical stuff so bare with me. Just weird to me that it had full power before and wanted to start but the carb was no good, so I switched that and now there’s no power at all (assuming I’m trying to hot wire this thing correctly)… new ignition should be here tomorrow and waiting for me when I get off work.. I’ll try to put that on but since my “hot wire” didn’t work, I have little faith it will actually have power after installing the new ignition switch. There’s gotta be something I’m missing, any insight would be great, thanks.
