Boy you are good at giving people information about where a lot of the parts are located on your bike. It is easy to criticize but I think you helped a good number of people as well as myself with this video.Thankyou.
Good video for people learning about the shift system. It's good to know how things work. Thank you. For the haters, he warned you in the beginning - just move on.
I have a 2001 350 es with 24,000 kms. has been a trouble free machine all those years, but the shifting is now quite sluggish, I think the shift motor is worn. thanks to your video I now have an overview of it's innards, and have gained the confidence to commence a repair. thanks again
I found the video very useful to me. Great overview of the ES system with a somewhat comical twist at the end. I like that you kept us in suspense on what the problem was and like a good "who done it" plot, finally disclosed the culprit. Some other viewers have so much dissatisfaction in their own lives that they'll find any excuse to vent their negative emotional energy including at this very informative video of the Honda ES system. I liked this video very much. Thank you for kindly showing the relationship of all the parts. I actually feel that I could fix one now. Awesome job! And thanks for tolerating the cold temperatures.
Thanks. Learned a lot. I saw another video where someone bought a kit to change the electric shift to a foot shift. That necessitated removing the gears inside. Perhaps that is what happened to your machine.
Thank you for being so detailed I just purchased one with same problem, no electric engagement, all of your detail helped me identify all the different components . Screw the unthankful comments, helped me ! Where can I send a check?
They removed the gears to bypass/disable the electric shift motor (since most likely they couldn't figure out what the issue was when it wasn't shifting i.e. ECU, angle sensor, electric gear motor, shifting controls, wiring) and went back to manual shift with the foot gear-shifter.
That's a cool video! A friend of mine has a problem with his 450 ES. He puts it in 3rd gear and can't get it out unless he rocks the 4-wheeler back and forth then it comes out. You showed a lot of good points and the sensors. He hit a concrete fireplace with the front end pretty hard. Didn't seem to hurt the bike but then the shifting problem started. It may be that sensor you were talking about in the front. Thanks for the video. I did start to fall asleep though. LOL
I came across your video about the honda rancher es transmission because I'm trying to decide what type of four wheeler to get (rep 804!). I have some other questions about it though. If the battery dies, can you pull start the atv and still use the electric shift? Also, are automatic transmissions more reliable than a es transmission?
It's a good all round issue what to look for to help me out on this Foreman. This 2007 was stolen by some kids and has been a jig saw puzzle to put back together. After getting the bike going and idles and revs nice, it still doesn't move. The meter dash had to be replaced also to see just what was going on. My N does show up now since I moved the main harness where it connects. So I'm going to try and pull those apart and see what is going on. A new switch only runs around 50.00
Yo..,....I'm in chester..... My neutral light is on but no "N" on the dash and my shifter doesn't work..... Trying to fix for my son what do you think may be wrong?..…..… ever been to Busco?
I watched a video cant remember from who.. 7 of 10 people removed the shift motor and cleaned it up.. sure enough I lucked out, Now its shifting like new, also I tighten the cable reverse cable, so no more pushing the red button just press the up ES and goes into reverse.. the ES just stopped working one day after many months of rocking the ATV and pushing the button a few times.. Now my fan motor isnt running... but I think its the Fan motor cause I have power to the fan.. OH and last week my throttle cable was getting very HOT,, all I did was unplug the 2 wires to the carburetor heater and cleaned them also, and Wow doesn't get hot anymore.. I have learned many tips and tricks on TH-cam..
Thks for sharin Easy to understand thks again do sell parts ? Lookin for head bolts mine missin bought it as is Lookin for Dash Panel Lights don,t come on is ther Fuse or Bulbs
I'm pretty sure someone did the same thing on my bike haha. Haven't pulled it apart yet but I'm pretty sure it is because I hear the shift motor spinning and they welded a shift lever to the manual shifter shaft so if I had to guess.. the electric shift failed, needed parts but didn't have money so they pulled the gears out and made it manually shift
That's the way mine is. Mine messed up when I was younger and my dad took it to get fixed and that's how it came back. Now 10 yrs later I want to make it electric shift again.
hello, my 2002 rancher ES 350 was actually missing the armature in the shifter motor, probably to make it easier to manually shift it with the emergency shifter honda supplies, do you still have the ICM (ECU)? the only thing that lights up on my dash is the red oil pressure switch in the upper right hand corner of the LED screen, and the backilight turns on when i turn on the headlights, nothing else shows on the screen, all fuses good, fresh battery, cleaned contacts throughout the harness, need some parts from you.
What size are the bolts that hold the shift sensor on? Not the heatshield bolts which are 10 mm. I have it in between an 8 and 9 mm or between 5/16 and 11/32. Very frustrated right now.
Dude. Good video. Ty. Better then all other videos i watched on this shifting issue. You covered everything. It was a headache for you but it helped me. It could be other part internal some kind of shift fork that brakes but good video.
Do you have the link to the parts you are selling on eBay? I am in need of the meter assembly or dash. Mine won't show if I am in neutral,reverse, or overheating. Any suggestions? Think it may be linked to why my bike won't electric shift when moving. Any help is appreciated.
Lol your not going to believe it but this is what I've been looking for ,,,, I needed to learn what controls the auto shift !!! Mine is not working ,so now I have a place to start from ! Thanks ,,, very good video and lots of information .....thanks agin
I think why your gears were missing on your Rancher video where you did everything else and then you finally pulled that little shifting motor off the reason why the gears were not there is because they took them out and didn't want to buy new gearing and a motor and they just took it out so they can shift it manually and they put the motor back on there so they wouldn't have a whole their dirt getting in it so the reason why they went from electric shift to the manual shift and I don't know nothing about a Honda Rancher or what was the other thing it's other name of that rig the Recon I didn't know anything about a Recon either I don't know anything about any of them quad things but that's my opinion is manual shifting brother and go with it
Do you still have the speedometer LCD/ dash LCD circuit board? If so would you sell it? Mine is messed up from the sun and the neutral light isn't working.
Can you also buy some other parts and put a manual shift lever on for foot shift while partially eliminating all the ES shifting stuff so the computer only tells the dash which gear you are in? on an 2004 forman Rubicon 500?
I spent several years working at a honda dealer in southern Idaho as a tech, where atvs are in abundance. You would not believe how many angle sensors I've replaced.
yeah angle sensor is not all that expensive, nor difficult to replace. They ARE a wear item, especially suspect whenever the shifting is erratic for all gears both up and down or the display blanks out because the computer does not know what gear the bike is in b/c the stupid angle sensor is sending it incorrect information.
I'm having the same trouble you had. I have a 2000 Honda rancher es 350. I have checked all my gears inside, they are all there. Don't know what else to do. Have any other idea i can do.
Hey i have a 2006 Honda Rancher 350 es and whenever i either ride in a certain gear or get high RPMs on a gear i can't shift with the button anymore and i can use the shifter at the bottom and it shifts just not the buttons but i can stop turn key off and back on and shift fine until i do that process again. Any help?
Good video. Ive got a 2003 honda rancher 350 4x4. It will shift up perfect. Its when you try to down shift that it won't shift. Some time it shifts and some times it wont. It will not go into reverse at all. I have to manualy shift it to go into reverse. You have any ideal wat the problem is and how to fix it
really late here, you've either fixed yours or moved on. I'm by no means an ATV mechanic, have some background in electronics. Other guys & gals out there with this problem. If I had one guess, I'd say the down shift (arrow) button switch is either corroded or just simply dirty. idk if you can open those up & spray in a little electric contact cleaner or not, or must simply replace the entire up/down switch. This would be for if the bike usually or never wanted to downshift thru any gear change. Now then if the problem was just would not electrically shift down into reverse, I'd be going after the little red round button switch you have to hold down. My thinking is if the shift motor, angle sensor & gears were working properly when up shifting they'd most likely work alright for the downshift. Would never hurt to clean out and regrease your little gears in the case next the shift motor. While you're down there, unplug the connector, inspect, and spray some cleaner in there, as possibly all it is a dirty connector. Don't have a schematic for the ATV, but I figure how the up / down shift switch works is that when the down button is pressed it changes the polarity of the electric sent to the shift motor. So if that is the case, all the electrical connections between the switch and shift motor are used for both up or down shifting. Only difference, for reverse, is the electric has to pass through the little red button reverse switch, and of course the switch contacts inside the down part of the shift button. UNLESS the ECM is somehow involved in the shifting, and electric has to route through it, again idk, but I'd go after switches & clean connectors first. Good luck, advice is free so maybe isn't worth much. Cheers.
That’s not a starter motor.it’s you’re es motor.and mine wasn’t like yours.can’t just pull my motor off and put it back together.I had to put the brushes back in the holder then the motor on and hold them brushes with the springs with metal clips,put motor back in then pull clips so brushes set
Ok, I found a manual here. www.manualslib.com/manual/804553/Honda-Trx350tm-Rancher.html?page=330#manual IMPORTANT! Find the link to download the PDF and do NOT add the browser extension that they try to have you use. It hijacks your search engine and God knows what else. But you can download the whole PDF and from there you can print what you need. Yeah, the video wandered all over for 18 minutes but hopefully this one link will have made the ordeal worth it.
so I have some shift issue, it will cycle all the way through 1st thru 5th but then will not shift back with the electric shift, this is if I only go fast, if I cycle through the gears but don't do it fast it will shift back down thru the gears...any idea?
Well I have the same issue but I have replaced everything besides the shift handle buttons... it's driving me crazy and I know the shift motor works because I tested it . Replaced sensors ecu all that and still the dashboard has no n or no shift 1 2 4 5 r before I changed the ecu it had n on the dashboard I put a new ecu now it says nothing. I'm tired 😫
Your video was helpful i only wish I had seen it before I went and changed a bunch of parts like you did, anyway as for a leaking carburetor a had the same problem I kept on cleaning my carb got new jets float needle to stop the carb from leaking but eventually it would leak again it was from debris from my fuel tank it kept getting in-between my float needle and the seat or float needle seat so it would cause the gas to overflow so I just installed a cheap fuel filter and that fixed it never leaked again
I think it is a good video as it shows different possibilities of what the problem could be ( even if it was not the case here) I have certainly learned a lot,,, to bad for those who know it all but yet, have to refer to youtube to fix their things...
I have a 2007 Honda Rancher and I'm having similar problems! When I turn it on the display lights up but where it should be an N for neutral, I'm getting a flashing line. No one I know seems to know what is going on! The Honda dealer told me to hit the starting motor with a hammer and that didn't work! The battery, solenoid, coil, and ecu is fine! I am at my wits end with trying to figure this out so any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks!!!
I got a 07 recon that wouldn't shift. I replaced shifter control then angle sensor then shift motor and still wouldn't shift. finally ended up replacing my sub par battery. boom..... fixed it. it needs good juice to make all the electronics fiction correctly. it won't shift just using the power off of the Magneto.
wow, who'd have thunk that while the bike is running the magneto, alternator, charging stator whatever they have on 'em to charge the battery would not supply the proper voltage and current to operate the shifter motor, somewhat overriding the bad battery if you will. Now I could see if the battery was TOTALLY out to lunch not taking or holding a charge at all, would not start bike from a cold start, etc. which btw a really garbage battery DOES stress out your electronics. Just a weak battery though which was starting the bike from cold start after sitting a few days, and still no proper shifting. Have to try that on mine!
@@BigjermsGarage probably was going to shift over from es to manual shift. Drop the reduction gears, put in a spline shift shaft and a foot shifter and...you've got a manual shift with no more es!!!
Hey great video. Look do you still have any of the parts for the recon if so I would like to get them from you I live on Richmond as well just let me know
Well I don't know what I need I was just going to try and get the whole system and just replace everything and hopefully that will fix it. someone told me to put a new battery in it and it will work but its not working. so give me a price on whatever you have to do you want to get rid of.
that's the 350 lol all you have to do is that wire harness plug in front of the handle bars probably has a little dirt in it. blow it out and save your money from buying half another quad. common problem. and for the 09 and up its usually the plug under the seat. its funny everyone says you need this and need that. even just using a pressure washer with break the seals of the o ring in the plugs. bam just saved you 20 mins of earring yourself talk
i had a problem with my wife's 2003 honda rancher with not shifting. took the shift motor off and cleaned the armature up and reinstalled and it worked perfectly'

Many people remove the shift motor gears in order to install manual foot shifter.
My Honda rancher 350 is like that now works great tho
Thanks for the video, it was good to hear about all the possibilities and to use the flow chart to start out with. Have a good day.
This video could have been about 4 minutes long. Why wouldnt you just tell the problem from the start?

Lol your not going to believe it but this is what I've been looking for ,,,, I needed to learn what controls the auto shift !!! Mine is not working ,so now I have a place to start from ! Thanks ,,, very good video and lots of information .....thanks agin
Your right it probably not anyone’s problem unless they buy used but it definitely helps troubleshooting normal issues
they left the gears out so they can shift it manually and put the motor and cover plate back in to keep dirt and mud out
I think why your gears were missing on your Rancher video where you did everything else and then you finally pulled that little shifting motor off the reason why the gears were not there is because they took them out and didn't want to buy new gearing and a motor and they just took it out so they can shift it manually and they put the motor back on there so they wouldn't have a whole their dirt getting in it so the reason why they went from electric shift to the manual shift and I don't know nothing about a Honda Rancher or what was the other thing it's other name of that rig the Recon I didn't know anything about a Recon either I don't know anything about any of them quad things but that's my opinion is manual shifting brother and go with it
Do you still have the control switch for the electric shift? I need one for my 05 350es.
Do you still have the speedometer LCD/ dash LCD circuit board? If so would you sell it? Mine is messed up from the sun and the neutral light isn't working.
I don't have any parts left for it.
I got one with a manual shift but I cant get the netural light to come on. I dont see angle sensor?
Really good video. You are a good communicator
They probably tried to manually shift it with the external shaft.
hi, thank you for the video, any chance you could send me a link to where you got the flow chart from ?, thanks again
Can you also buy some other parts and put a manual shift lever on for foot shift while partially eliminating all the ES shifting stuff so the computer only tells the dash which gear you are in? on an 2004 forman Rubicon 500?
I spent several years working at a honda dealer in southern Idaho as a tech, where atvs are in abundance. You would not believe how many angle sensors I've replaced.
Ryan R , was the problem angle sensor
yeah angle sensor is not all that expensive, nor difficult to replace. They ARE a wear item, especially suspect whenever the shifting is erratic for all gears both up and down or the display blanks out because the computer does not know what gear the bike is in b/c the stupid angle sensor is sending it incorrect information.

Good video. learned a lot about my Rancher and fixed my shifting problem . Thanks
I have a 04 350 Honda Recon, just recently it had stop shiftin n gear how do I go bout fixing it
They take em out to make it easier to manually shift when they didn't find the problem with the esp
omg, this guy loves himself talking, could have been over in a few minutes
Thanks for the video, I lost reverse on mine and had no clue why. thanks for the tip on that sensor.
Thanks now I got an idea of how my rancher 420 works. I'm sure it's a little different but pretty much the same.
I’m not petty,any info helps me weather it be now or years down the road in a diff machine
Hey i have a 2006 Honda Rancher 350 es and whenever i either ride in a certain gear or get high RPMs on a gear i can't shift with the button anymore and i can use the shifter at the bottom and it shifts just not the buttons but i can stop turn key off and back on and shift fine until i do that process again. Any help?
Did you ever figure out the problem mine is doing the same thing?
@@billyriezinger3536 installed new head unit and cdi and after that it resolved the issue
Maybe you could help me figure out what's causing the 30amp fuse behind the battery keeps blowing as soon as I turn my atv on

Did you figure out the problem yet, I've got an 07 doin the same thing.
I hav a problem wit my Honda when I shift it stalls out. do u know wht could be the problem. It’s that same as your Honda
With those gears messing I don't know how it ever shifted into gear
What would cause the dash to blink constantly
Do you still have the other dash display?
Never tryd that yet but I'm gona take a look tomorrow this video helped me alot hopefully it works for me
Thanks, saved me some money with this video.
I got a 07 recon that wouldn't shift. I replaced shifter control then angle sensor then shift motor and still wouldn't shift. finally ended up replacing my sub par battery. boom..... fixed it. it needs good juice to make all the electronics fiction correctly. it won't shift just using the power off of the Magneto.
wow, who'd have thunk that while the bike is running the magneto, alternator, charging stator whatever they have on 'em to charge the battery would not supply the proper voltage and current to operate the shifter motor, somewhat overriding the bad battery if you will. Now I could see if the battery was TOTALLY out to lunch not taking or holding a charge at all, would not start bike from a cold start, etc. which btw a really garbage battery DOES stress out your electronics. Just a weak battery though which was starting the bike from cold start after sitting a few days, and still no proper shifting. Have to try that on mine!
How did the gears get out of it? Or did they just disolve!
I'm guessing a previous owner went to replace them but never finished the job.
@@BigjermsGarage probably was going to shift over from es to manual shift. Drop the reduction gears, put in a spline shift shaft and a foot shifter and...you've got a manual shift with no more es!!!
Hey do you sell any parts I am in Chester
so basically your angle sensor went out on you right
This video was helpful thanks.
This video helped, Thanks!
They took the gears out because they used a foot shifter to shift. If you take them gears out it shifts easy by foot
do you have a seat for a Honda recon 250 1997 for a good price?
How about just getting the electric shift by pass
Very good video man thanks
Do you have any rubicon hondamatic parts its a 2003 500
awesome video, thanks for sharing
david steele thanks for watching
Thanks, i watched the video, it gave me the ideas, had a wire off switch
Hey great video. Look do you still have any of the parts for the recon if so I would like to get them from you I live on Richmond as well just let me know
I have two recons. What do you need? I was going to make one out the two of them and sell the rest.
Well I don't know what I need I was just going to try and get the whole system and just replace everything and hopefully that will fix it. someone told me to put a new battery in it and it will work but its not working. so give me a price on whatever you have to do you want to get rid of.
My 2016 Honda Rancher when I went to start it it was stuck in Manuel when I push the switch over it won’t go in auto
Do you want to sell me the airbox and the dash that you had in the box
Missing all gears because previous owner used it as manual shift only.
that's the 350 lol all you have to do is that wire harness plug in front of the handle bars probably has a little dirt in it. blow it out and save your money from buying half another quad. common problem. and for the 09 and up its usually the plug under the seat. its funny everyone says you need this and need that. even just using a pressure washer with break the seals of the o ring in the plugs. bam just saved you 20 mins of earring yourself talk
Needed better lighting for the video. But other then that extremely informative.
i had a problem with my wife's 2003 honda rancher with not shifting. took the shift motor off and cleaned the armature up and reinstalled and it worked perfectly'
I think you done a great job god bless
Once you got to the point it started to make a little bit of sense but not enough to help
