Hi new 2 the page having trouble with my 2010 trx500fa and wondering if anyone on here knows what voltage a should get at the angel sensor am getting 3.6v dc at the connector and from the ecm and what resistance the sensor should give out getting 4.2 ohms

Welcome to the forum.

You should be able to find those specs here in your model specific service manual: https://www.hondaatvforums.net/foru...ads.html#/forumsite/21330/topics/50817?page=1

Hey Jigz, no worries lots of issues with the electric shift models that we can solve here on the Honda forums! I have a 06 400at and for a long time I thought it was the angle sensor but it turned out to be the ECM. Do you ride in water alot ?

Hi a friend of mine got it as a project but was out his depths with it and passed it 2 me he had replaced the sensor and motor recommend by his local Honda dealer but dash still flashes 6 flashes so a tested voltage 2 sensor and it's down by 1v both at the sensor and the ecm so taking it it will need one 2 as its getting battery voltage going 2 the ecm

Let's not confuse the 400AT's and '01-'14 Rubicon's hondamatics with the common ES models though. Yes the hondamatics have an 'ES' mode, and they both have angle sensors and shift motors, but other than that they are apples and oranges.

Electronically, they are very similar as far as how the ES system works. ES just means "Electronic Shift" Meaning the shift motor changes the gear as opposed to the rider having to shift with their foot. Im just asking about water because with these models moisture tends to get into the ecm because of its location, unless they relocated them on newer models.

Agreed on the similarities.

I'm just saying in 'Honda speak" the ES (Electronic Shift) models are a very specific subset of models that the Rancher 400AT and Rubicon are not part of.

Recon ES (TRX250TE)
Rancher ES (TRX350TE, TRX350FE, TRX420TE, TRX420FE)
Foreman ES (TRX450FE, TRX500FE)

Those are the "ES" honda models. I would never call our Rancher 400AT's (TRX400FA) an ES model because they are not a footshift model like the ones listed above that have the ES added. The 400AT's (and '01-'14 Rubicon's) do have an ESP mode for push button shifting.

I am tracking with you when you say "these ES bikes" but I'm just trying to keep it distinguished for the people that may not know all the ins and outs of these that the 400AT's and Rubicons are not ES models by honda model naming standards.

Glad to have you aboard, I'm surer you've already helped others with the new workaround you've shared. Great review on your new Rancher as well.

Oh okay that makes sense, since the footshift ones don't have hondamatic right? They are basically a footshift with a motor to shift for you. Cool, I can appreciate the distinction.

PS. New bike is awesome! Already over 70km on her!
