So I picked up a 2001 scrambler 500 4x4 project pretty cheap the other day. It's been sitting over a year in a shed, plastics were off and spray painted, etc. I stripped all the plastics, cleaned the carb, installed a new battery and spark plug, as well as fresh gas. The thing runs great, but only if I start it by jumping the starter solenoid with a screw driver... I don't seem to be getting power to my switches (start button doesn't work, lights don't work, etc). Has anyone had this issue before or is it common? I don't even know where to start.... I looked around at the wiring harness and didn't see any obvious damage, however I did find some non plugged in connectors I don't know what they are for... I was going to wire up my own start button and light switch, but I'd rather try and fix the issue before avoiding it. Any help is appreciated!
