Product Overview
A Rancher stuck in gear, flashing shift code, or refusing to respond to the thumb buttons can be sidelined by angle-sensor or control-circuit problems even when the shift motor and gearbox still work. This bypass-style kit provides direct button control for a correctly diagnosed 350 ES system.
A bypass changes how the shift circuit is controlled; it does not repair stripped reduction gears, a weak battery, bad shift motor, damaged wiring, seized transmission, or mechanical clutch problem. Confirm TRX350 ES model, year, connectors, motor operation, and kit instructions before installation.

- Designed for Honda Rancher 350 electric-shift applications

- Plug-in style installation where connectors match
Common Uses
- Restoring button shifting after an angle-sensor control failure

Q: Will the original gear-position logic work the same? A: A bypass changes ECU and angle-sensor involvement; read the kit instructions and understand the changed operation before riding.
Q: Is this an original-equipment part? A: No. This is a new aftermarket product. Brand names and part numbers are used only to identify compatible applications.
