honda 500 foreman dead

[akajhon]

Got a 500 Honda foreman,4wd,
After sitting up awhile,tried to start,it would after several cranks,would idle
but dies when throttled,full choke.
Then all electric gone,had battery charged and checked ,all good.Per advice
I double checked battery grounding cables and fuses..
no power at all,including no lights dase etc.
Where from here ???

Find out where the voltage stops. I would start probing everything with a multimeter and find out where the voltage stops "flowing" from the battery. You could have a wire that was chewed by a mouse.

Rechecked the battery hookups,found two wires to to the positive,only one hooked up,,amazingly when both are connected,it started up..Magic
thanks,
