Hey guys I am new here but I'm looking for some help. I have a 2018 CForce 500 HO (CF500AU-6L). I bought it brand new from the dealer back in 2018 and have loved it up until now. The machine has seen very little use (under 300 total miles). I basically only use it for hunting/fishing/trapping, occasionally plowing the driveway, and working on my garden/food plots. The other day I was riding out to my garden to spray, and the machine died. I was in gear and going maybe 2-3mph. I Wasn't sure what had happened, so turned the key off, turned it back on and the dash flashed on for maybe 1 second and then blank screen, no lights, sounds, anything. Figuring it was somehow a battery issue I grabbed my jump pack, nothing. So I took the battery out and put it on a charger for 24 hours, nothing. I've checked the 30 amp fuse coming off the battery and it is good. I've checked the fuses in the front and they are also fine. I am completely lost on what to do. Obviously it's not under warranty anymore, and I really can't afford a trip to the dealer for service. Has anyone experienced anything like this before? I'm looking for any and all suggestions to try, if anyone needs more info let me know, Thanks for the help

Well I have a new development. I got the new Maxi fuse holder and installed it last night. I was really hoping that would fix it, but I was wrong. Nothing changed. So I started looking into it more and I found the issue. I made a jumper wire and put it from the positive battery terminal to the studs on the starter relay. First stud nothing happened, I touched it to the 2nd stud and the engine turned over and tried to start. I pulled the starter relay out and saw that attached to it was another fuse holder, but it had no fuse in it and was also slightly melted/burnt (see pictures). The fuse holder says 30 amp on it, so I grabbed a 30 amp fuse and tried to put it in, but problems. I can't get the fuse in because there is some piece of metal on each side preventing it. But when I touch the fuse to where it should go, the dash lights up. I balance the fuse in position and the dash turns on, I hit the starter button and she starts right up. My question now is, what is this part? It sits on top of the starter relay and has a wiring harness plugged into it. Obviously I need to replace this but should I also replace the starter relay (I found they relay and it's about $40). Thanks for all the help so far guys I really appreciate it. I need to get it up and running soon to get my food plots in!

Thank you for the help, after doing some tests I believe the fuse harness is the culprit. Any suggestions on where to get a new one from? I've never had to order any parts for my atv yet, should I get a CF Moto fuse harness, or just find a 40 amp harness off Amazon or somewhere? Thanks
