I am a novice mechanic for my area. I do everything from complete rebuilds. To tie rods. To seats. Etc.
I also buy alot of project or broke atv for repair and resale.
Unfortunately alot of the ones I get are honda es models.
With that being said I recently purchased a used 2002 honda recon es. That the previous owner did a engine swap to a manual shift. The problem I am scratching my head about is that at first it would only run for about 5 min. Then die out didn’t make a difference at any rpm or if you were riding it or idling. I installed a new carb. Check timing and valve clearance. And now I get nothing.
Meaning with a fully charged battery no start. Even if I jump the starter. I get nothing. Even with the pull rope it will roll but no fire.
The es panel has a flashing 1 (3 times ).
Which indicates angle sensor. But it has no such sensor and the wiring plug is just hanging there.
I have checked everything( wiring etc ). Am I missing something.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
