Working out the bugs on the 2000 (not a hyper motard) Quota, I would get a no start problem. First I addressed the ignition switch. It was extremely corroded. Still had no start issue. Moving wires below the gage's gave me a false sense the problem was there. Then onto replacing all the relays and fuses. Then moving wires around at the relays, I narrowed it down to the ECU relay area. Then the wire that has the diode shown in the wiring diagram N4007.
Chasing down a no start, no spark, no fuel pump running problem, I found that the diode N4007 between the ecu and the relay for the coil, fuel pump is broke. I can push the solid copper wire into the diode and the engine will run. I can pull the copper wire and the engine will stop.
In doing some research, I found this from This Old Tractor.
I am not clear if this is adding an additional diode or the diode that I am having problems with is an original factory fix. The diode currently installed is referenced in the OEM wiring diagram.
