Last year in March, on the last day of the Max ride in Revy. We were heading back to the trucks, I thought as I came down a hill. That my gut hit the reverse button and made 3 lights come on the dash???
But apparently not!!! Since then, at pretty much any RPM. The "check engine, oil, and rev" lights all come on at the same time.
It's not a flash code, nor do they flash. She drops in power just before, the LED display resets itself, the voltage gauge stay's lit up and does not falter at all. Doesn't matter if the fuel wire is plugged in or not. As soon as I whack the throttle, it's gone!!!
I'm :confused: and have a few Poo diehards :confused: as well

I know this should be in the IQ section, but looking for more help!!!

Thanks in advance ::beer: :beer: :D

P.S. Reduntant post's will be removed, not being mean...... just looking for help......

Wasn't the voltage regulator a problem on those sleds? Maybe check that out. Just a thought!

The VR and the ECU are new. The sled runs great, until those 3 lights come up for a couple of seconds.

You check for some wires rubbed through? That can be a sh!ty checking all the wires but you never know there could be a pinched or rubbed wire.

Just took a quick look, without going through it completely. Visually everything looks good.

Hey Doug.
Does it happen if turning in a certain direction? May be wires shorting when turned or pulled?

No.... It doesn't matter how the bars are, it just happens when it wants too :(

Hey Doug,
Talked with the local dealer Mech. The lights going on & then hitting throttle to clear it up, he says TPS.
Run it into a dealer & have the codes checked. If lights are coming on it must set some codes.

I just moved my thread over here to the IQ section, from the snowmobile chat.
Just seeing if there is anymore input on this baffling matter.

I agree, take it to the dealer and check the codes. a shorted wire or failed sensor will show up for sure. it takes the guess work out.
