I will try the brake pedal thing but I start in neutral normally which doesn't require brake pedal but at this point I'll try anything.  There has been talk of running direct power from either the batt or the cig lighter port direct to fuel pump but not sure if that will damage pump or even work

If the wheeler spent the night outside -5 it would start in morning.  Fuel pump test turns on I can hear the pump.  It's only after I run it for a while and let it cool down when problem starts.  So after I shut it off if I turn the key pump starts it's test as you called it and shuts off like normal.  I can turn key on 10 times and pump will turn on 10 times and will start.   But after what seems like a set time which I haven't nailed down exacts call it 20 min the pump will not turn on, then I know it won't turn on. That's when I need to warm it up in garage . Garage is normally around 30 degree even in extreme cold.  I get an error code on my dash which I wish I had now but I looked it up and was a generic code that pretty much said no power to pump.   Something seems to be cutting power, relay or maybe the computer it's self..

I know this all sound weird,  I'm no mechanic but I've rebuilt motors over the years and there's not much I can't fix or at the very least know what the problem is.  This has me , gear head buddies and a local Atv repair shop stumped.  I gave up till I found this forum yeasterdy.  Other then this problem thing runs great.

Hey, new to the forums (new to any forum).  I have a 2015 450i camo utv bought new. When it's cold we will say below 10 degrees and below, utv fires up no problem. Runs great. I'll run around neighborhood heat it up then shut it off. So problem happens after I shut it off. After 15-20 min of letting the Machine sit when I try to start, the fuel pump will not turn on.  Won't start. I have to push into the garage and let it warm up little bit ( not a lot, garage is unheated) maybe 30 min then the pump will start again.   If I turn the key on right after I shut it down the pump fires up no problem but after the 20 min it won't.   This happened 4 days after I bought it stranded on a lake,  dealer said relay and replaced it but the temps went in the 20s after that and really couldnt test the fix till next winter.  I've been just not using it on really cold days but would love to.
The dealer I bought it from went under last year so they were not able to follow up.
I bought this in dec 2015 and have been dealing with it ever since.   Any help or ideas would be great since ice fishing season is approaching fast.
