Anybody own a Honda ATV?
Mine won’t start. I get on it, put the key in the ignition, and turn it. The engine won’t turn over and start running. I press the acceleration and it doesn’t go forward.
HELPPPPP.

Does it have a “choke?”
Check the emergency brake - as it may have a interrupter switch to prevent it from operating correctly.
Where’s the emergency brake? o.o
WHAT’S A CHOKE?
I don’t know anything. Be slower!
A “choke” is a lever attached to a cable that links up with the carburator. When it’s cold you pull the choke to dump raw gas from the carb to the engine.

Check this too.
The brake on the left grip should have a strong wire the holds it open - there may even be one on the right.
When you push the START button, does the engine roll over?

Is it out of gas?
Sure I’m old enough to drive.
And, no, I turn the key and nothing happens.

Okay. . .how do you know if the battery’s fine?
Because it turns on and everything, but the motor doesn’t do anything.
Dosen’t matter - there maybe enough “juice” to light up the lights but the starter requires a significant ammount of the battery to turn the engine. I’d say jump-start it (cables and an assist battery).
When you turn the key or push the button, does it even make a “clicking” sound?
Low Battery - charge it for a while with a battery charger.
No instant get-on-and-go gratification for the time being - give it 30 mins.
