I gota 1995 warrior it runs great when u catch it in gear but when u press the start button it does nothing. I did jumper cables right to the battery wires and still nothing :( wat can this be ?
 
Stupid quesition but have you even tested the battery? Does your headlight work if the ignition is set to on? Does the neutral and reverse lights work?

Trace the wires from the start button to the harness and connect a digital multimeter to them. Put the DMM in ohm mode. With the button out, you should have no continuity, with the button being pushed you should have low numbers on the DMM (showing continuity).

Start there. If you find the switch is broken, try jumpering the 2 wires together and see if that results in it starting. If it does, replace the switch.

If that doesnt resolve the issue or do what I said it should, report back. Ill try and help you as much as I can. My buddy has a Warrior I can check stuff out on if you need me to.
 
Did you turn the key?

Sounds silly, but I've seen people hack them off and leave the wires dangling. Never know what the previous owner did.

Aside from that the starter solenoid could be the problem. Try jumping the two terminals with a screw driver. Be careful, the screwdriver will probably get HOT fast.
