I have a Honda rancher that I bought from my brother that was in need of new brushes in the starter. I had it rebuilt at a starter shop. I reinstalled it tonight and when I tried to crank it, I got a spark at the battery and it shut everything down. I took it loose at the battery and reconnected it and that reset the electronics I guess because the power would come back on again to the console but as soon as I hit the starter button again it did the same thing. I took the wire loose from starter and checked with a meter at the solenoid and at the connection. I have power to one side of the solenoid and when I engage the switch, I have power to the other side and at the end of wire so it seems the switch and solenoid are working properly I assumed that the starter was maybe grounding itself out so I took it out and apart, checked the brushes and the terminal and all looked good. I reinstalled it and it fired up like it should so I put everything back together. As soon as I sat down on the seat and hit the starter button again, it sparked again and shut everything off again. I am very frustrated with this thing now and don't know where to check next. Anyone have any experience with these? Thanks
