Well I screwed up this weekend. I got my Pro FXT a little deep in the water and it locked up. I got it home pulled the plugs, sucked the water off the top #1 piston. (that was the only chamber with water in it.)The crank case didn't appear to have any water in it but I suspect it broke a piston or rod. I took the belt housing cover off and I cant turn it by hand. When I turn the key all I get is a click. It is now on its way to the dealer Ill give an update hopefully in the next week or two. SAD-DAYS for the pocket book!

Usually  clicking indicates the starter is bad or isn't getting enough juice. I would start by checking  the battery.

read through this thread:

if the battery checks out, i would replace the solenoid, or check for voltage AT the solenoid/starter.. as far as not turning it by hand, i *think* you are supposed to  be able to turn over by hand. but i am not sure on that aspect.

here's a video for the solenoid.

 

If you do find a broken rod here is a site for parts. Great business. https://www.kawasakipartshouse.com/oemparts/c/kawasaki_utility/parts

i guess this will help you out in someway or another. :D

      I'm working with a 2015 MSU-500.  Basic symptoms are it cranks well, but will not fire.  It has spark, and it has fuel spraying out of the injector (and spraying starting fluid into the throttle body and plug hole makes no difference).  It has compression.  I bought it not running, and no other information was available.  It has 775 miles on it and 127 hours.  It looks to be in very good shape.   Previous owner replaced fuel pump, ECU, coil, plug, and the fuse/relay box that mounts on the firewall, then gave up.
      My questions relate to cam/valve timing, considering the symptoms and diagnostics so far.  My thinking was the woodruff key sheared off and the crank spun, making it out of time.  My question is, by the pictures attached does anyone have an opinion as to the cam/valve timing being correct?  In the crankshaft picture you can see a timing mark visible.  In the camshaft picture I have arrows directed towards what I think are timing marks (which appear to be exactly 180 degrees from one another).  However, the long arrow in what appears to be bolt configuration in line with the piston/rod line.  Here is a puzzling note... in the position you see in the pictures... I have valve lash on both the intake and exhaust.  I think it's at TDC, given the visible crank timing mark and valve lash on both valves. 
      Any thoughts ?  Does this appear to be in proper valve time ?  Have I missed anything simple ?  Thanks in advance for your input.

       I just picked up this project that I was told would crank, but not start.  This is what I’ve figured out so far….
      I installed a new battery and get all dash lights, head lights, and brake lights on when turning the ignition on.  Fuel pump even turns on.  It does not crank with the key, but would when I jumped the starter solenoid, so I replaced it…..no change.
      Figured I’d check for spark and compression while I was dorking around.  Compression is 150 psi, but there is no spark.  Replaced the spark plug… no change.
      So, is my new starter solenoid bad?  Could it be the brake or gear position switches even though the brakes and neutral lights come on?  Not sure where to go from here.

      2007 Hisun HS700  will not crank.  Replace the ignition switch. Same thing.  Replaced solenoid by the battery same thing. Can jump it and it starts good across the solenoid posts. Ran a jumper wire from switch to solenoid. Nothing 
       
      can anyone suggest something else.

      I’m need a couple parts. Diff. Lock Actuator mainly. But I would like to find a donor that maybe has bad motor or something along those lines. 
      if anyone has or knows of anything please holler at me 
      thanks Randy
