Abstract: Let $P_n$ be the probability that a second order system of nonlinear random equations over the field $\mathbf{GF}(3)$ has a solution in a given set of vectors, where $n$ is the number of unknowns in the system. A necessary and sufficient condition is found for $P_n\to 0$ as $n\to \infty$. Some rates of convergence to zero are found and some applications are described.
