polaris atv wiring hook up nf

[mr blizzard]

Quick question

 

My son replaced our atv battery last spring. The battery froze and we just replaced it with an agm.

 

Our hand warmers used to work but now they do not. I think he has hooked up some wiring to the battery wrong.

 

Question....there is a wire that is half red and half black...which terminal should it go on.

 

Thanks for any assistance

Sorry there is also a thin red wire which has a factory black sheating over it

Gonna pull your leg here, just goes to show you how things go wrong, "most" DC wiring, red is +, black is - So, sometimes the wire just might be a bit more difficult to connect to one terminal because of its length to the battery post. Other than that, it's a Polaris, bottom of the totem pole for reliabilty and quality. Sorry.

LOL GOOD ONE

 

but all the wires are factory and one is truly half red and half black, and the other is red with a black sheathing over top, again factory, now i know why I did not play with a rubics cube lol

I installed hand warmers on my 2012 Polaris 500 this past winter. They work great. All the wiring from the warmers are installed to an existing harness inside the headlight pod. No wires go to the battery.
