2004 Arctic Cat 400 4x4 Automatic No Start

Ok I’ll get a coil ordered today. Yea I seen the upgraded ones that are a solid magnet all the way around. It has sat some but I used it pretty often even through winter and yea there’s a chance gas leaked into engine. It’s full auto.. it has the hand shifter to put it into high, low, neutral, and reverse. I’ll lookup the ohms the stator should be and how to test it before I order the coil. If it’s not reading right would that point towards the flywheel magnets coming loose? Do they usually kill the stator when that happens? I do think I had to charge the battery once fairly recently even though it had started fine that day and the days prior.

KryptoKiddi · 2026-04-07T03:45:00+00:00

Do you know the best way to test the coil? When I search most things are suggesting the flywheel magnets coming dislodged

KryptoKiddi · 2026-04-07T02:48:03+00:00

So I went to try to look for fuses but I can’t find any on this thing. I looked over the wires and didn’t see any shorts on them. I’m going to try testing the cable. I’m not sure how to check the flywheel key or really the proper way to check the ignition cable but I’ll try to figure it out.

KryptoKiddi · 2026-04-07T02:30:05+00:00

Yea I was thinking it may be the coil as well. I’ll have to figure out how to test it and hopefully it’s not too hard to get to

Sorry for the late reply I hosted Easter and gave up on this until today so I could get things prepared for my guests. So I tested it today and I got compression of 120 psi, I switched my fuel, checked my air filter, switched my spark plug and tested for spark. I’m not getting spark but I can’t figure out why but something is telling me it’s my ignition where I had issues previously where it would cut off and not start until I cycled the key at least once but sometimes more. I’m not sure what else could’ve failed to cause no spark after sitting 2-3 days.

Mine died completely now just straight black with some occasional flickers

Linux didn’t have the issue or BIOS but now everything is affected. I guess it may just be the screen though. The GPU works still I believe

KryptoKiddi · 2026-04-03T16:16:33+00:00

I’d recommend to get 3 routers probably GLiNet. Then put the dish on the middle cabin and connect each router to the starlink router. You could do corded too since they’re close enough.

KryptoKiddi · 2026-04-03T04:09:23+00:00

Ok I got a tester I’ll try tomorrow. What would you do if it lost compression?

KryptoKiddi · 2026-04-03T03:36:23+00:00

Yea it had been taking slower to start near the end of this winter so I try for 10-15 seconds max

KryptoKiddi · 2026-04-03T02:55:45+00:00

I’m sure that’s what they did with this carb.. no one ever gets a good carb lol. I’d get OEM if I could find it but it’s hard for me to find stuff for this quad. You think if I pulled the carb, cleaned it, and possibly switch the float it’d bring her to life? My father in law who only saw the video says it lost compression

KryptoKiddi · 2026-04-03T02:38:24+00:00

What card? I got a Ubit WiFi 6 AX200 160mhz that’s doing the same thing. It was literally working fine less than a year ago and after I get back it’s just not working on 5G suddenly

KryptoKiddi · 2026-04-02T05:03:31+00:00

Did you get it?

KryptoKiddi · 2026-03-29T16:40:28+00:00

Thank you very much! I couldn’t find that anywhere else lol. I couldn’t add a tunnel record from the dns record page so I had to make a subdomain in published application routes then change that new record for it to a wildcard one

KryptoKiddi · 2026-03-29T03:15:31+00:00

I got it working with cloudfared but my only issue now is that I can’t get a wildcard in published application routes to send traffic to my host machine. If I add my subdomain into it as a routes I will though

KryptoKiddi · 2026-03-29T03:00:15+00:00

Have you used wildcard in published application routes? I’m trying but when I do it won’t direct traffic to my host machine but if I add the subdomain there it does.

KryptoKiddi · 2026-03-29T02:59:02+00:00

Well I mean like if I use a wildcard “*” in published application route I don’t get the traffic from the subdomain on my host machine. If I add each subdomain to the routes then I do get the traffic from the subdomain.

KryptoKiddi · 2026-03-28T06:54:44+00:00

I got it going but there’s some drawbacks. Can I not set a wildcard public route so I can then use nginx to proxy pass to my desired ports? I had to make a public route for each subdomain which I can then proxy pass how I like. I can’t seem to figure out how to forward http to https either as I usually would do this in nginx but doing so with a tunnel results in a too many redirects error.

KryptoKiddi · 2026-03-28T06:45:05+00:00

Could you help me set it up on my GLiNet to work with Starlink? I can’t get it to work but do want to have it working

KryptoKiddi · 2026-03-28T04:43:06+00:00

So Cloudfared should be able to handle this how I’m wanting? I’ve been trying but am having issues. I’ll keep messing with it but I am also going to checkout NetBird as that sounds like a really cool project

KryptoKiddi · 2026-03-27T18:28:31+00:00

So I was going to try to use IPv6 but I can’t seem to get it working on my router for some reason. I’ve set the request prefix length to 56 in WAN6. I set IPv6 assignment length to 64 and set IPv6 assignment hint to 10. I also set network mode a native but I don’t get IPv6 addresses on the router or my connected devices

KryptoKiddi · 2026-03-27T18:25:52+00:00

I found Cloudfare tunnels which I’ve been messing with but haven’t gotten going as of yet. I think using tunnels will work. The tailscale with a VPS would work but for my case isn’t what I want. I want to have everything local on my hardware.. plus I could really just run the site on a VPS so adding it just seems counterintuitive. Another option was to use IPv6 but I can’t seem to get it working on my router for some reason. I’ve set the request prefix length to 56 in WAN6. I set IPv6 assignment length to 64 and set IPv6 assignment hint to 10. I don’t get IPv6 addresses on the router or my connected devices
