The Rhino charging system does not seem to be working. You will need to check the stator for proper AC voltage output and no continuity to ground. If that is OK at around 20 Volts AC (engine running), then you will need to check the R/R output which should be near 13.5 to 14 Volts DC (engine running). There are numerous threads on this subject.
Basically, my rhino was starting fine, then idling very high. Here's what he said was going on: "When you turn on the key, the ISC valve should fully open (that lets air flow around the throttle blade for starting).
Looking around, I see a lot of problems with starting and idling rough. 90% of the time it's a dirty carb. As soon as I got my Rhino home the first thing I did was remove the carburetor bowl and clean the jets. It's a 30 min process and makes a huge difference. It can easily be done without...

So the '07 Rhino 660 got a new one-way starter clutch bearing. During reassembly, the spark plug boot cracked and broke. I ran the Rhino for testing purposed by just jamming the spark plug wire against the plug. Ran great that one time. Now it doesn't start. Spark is VERY intermittent and...
rhino 660 wont start 2007 rhino 660 won't start, battery, relay and fuses good,how can you tell if it's your starter or the starter clutch kit before taking it all apart?
I found this thread on a different site and didn't want to post a link to it so heres the first page about plugs. Dan While servicing my stock '07 Rhino 450 I replaced the standard NGK DR8EA spark plug with NGK's Iridium plug DR8EIX on the advice of a friend. I noticed an almost immediate...
