96 TRX400 – Can’t find neutral

Hello, new to the forum – and ATV’s. Just purchased this machine used. My understanding is it won’t start unless it’s in neutral. The original shift lever was slipping, so I’ve replaced it. Is there a trick to finding neutral? The light doesn’t work, it appears to roll, yet it doesn’t fire when they key is on and the ignition switch is pressed. I’ve tried this in what would seem to be every shifting position. Any tips or tricks would be helpful. Thanks in advance!

LED Light Kit Shopping

Lucked into finding a set of NOS OEM accessory light mounts for my ’86. Want to install a set of LED spotlights that look similar to the original spotlights, which are very cool but also rare, overpriced battery hogs. I am looking at minimum 800 Lumens b/c I am using original stator–amp draw is a concern for me.
Interested to hear what light kits members liked/ didn’t like

2006 rubicon 500 flashing D1 / D2 ESP

I have a 2006 rubicon 500 that has a problem. it flashes the D1 / D2 and ESP. i changed the angle sensor because i heard it was a common problem and i didnt do anything. It basically acts like it doesnt know what gear it is in and wont shift. it doesnt matter if cam in d1 / d 2 or esp. It happened more if i have played in the puddles so i am wondering if water is in connection or a sensor acting up. i just know what sensor. i thank you in advance for any help
