I want to know if anyone else has had this problem on there sportsman. I had just replaced a ecm on a 04 1/2 sportsman 500 because it had a battery draw & it also flashed the hot light on the pod all the time but the fan worked fine. After I changed it, it started to stall out at any time, seemed to be worse when hot. It would allways restart but sometimes it took a while. It could stall out so many times that you couldnt ride it 20 feet without it stalling at least once. I did some testing & found that when it stalls it looses spark. Did more testing & found when it did die there was no pulse from the CDI to the coil, so its not the coil! Did more testing & found powers & grounds are good to the CDI. I measured the resistance of the pick up at the CDI conector & it was allways at 222ohms & I tryed testing as soon as it stalled & it was allways 222 but as soon as I pluged it in it would start so I dont know for sure its the CDI. I allso tested the throttle switch & its open all the time, wires are ok I dont think this could cause the stalling. Any suggestins?
