06 polaris scrambler 500 problem running thru water.

I ran my 06 Polaris Scrambler 500 thru a few water holes while trail riding(all water depth was from the foot rests and lower). and noticed that when i came out of the water puddle, i had very little power. Let it sit a minute or 2 and it was fine. When i went at a slow crawl thru the water i had no problem. Just wondering if anyone has knowledge of y this could be happening?

1992 trailboss fan connection

i picked up a 92 trailboss 250, that model didnt have a fan, i also picked up a parts machine that didnt have a motor, but did have the fan, i really want to put the fan in my machine, but i dont know where it connects, the wire connector on the fan was cut..does anyone have clear picture on where it connects by chance? thanks!

Honda 400FA Oil Temp Sensor

Gents,
Is there any place I can buy an oil temp sensor online? I am having a heck of a time finding one.

I had a stick jammed up into the temp sensor wire. It looked cracked, so I remove it, grounded the wire and the fan still comes on… so I think maybe the temp sensor is bad.

I feel like the motor might be overheating – it starts making a strange labored squeaky noise when idling after running awhile. Can’t get the fan to come on when the motor seems hot enough.

No temp alarm/dummy light on this model.

First upgrades for my 2016 850 Xmr

Hey Guys I Just bought a 850 Xmr Friday and took it riding Saturday and had a great time on it but, I am looking to put a lot of upgrades on it such as a lift (around 4+ inches), exhaust, new primary/secondary clutch and for sure taller snorkels. What would you guys recommend for these parts and what should i do first?

Fan wires

Putting together a basketcase 350, and the fan wires don’t have a comnector on them, and the only probable spot on the harness end has bullet connectors. Is this where the fan connects?

1997 Xplorer 400 advice

New to the forum. I used to own polaris’ way back when. I wasn’t really looking but came across a 1997 Xplorer 400 in excellent condition. It was owned by an older man who passed away, his son has no use for it so he’s selling it. It has a snow plow, 1300 miles. He was asking $2500 but is willing to let it go for $1750.

I think this is a fair price, your thoughts?

Is anyone familiar with this particular snow plow?

Rear differential

My son had a bearing go down inside his rear differential, 2010 Grizzly 700, pulled it apart, replaced all bearings, may still have issues.

Anybody know a good source for a new complete rear end replacement? Any vendors here, please speak up.

Trx 90 and trx 250 neutral light faults? Help!

My first post here so bare with me!

We have a trx90 which does not display the green neutral light when in nuetral and wont start on the button. If we bridge the starter solenoid terminals she fires up!
The neutral safetry switch has been swapped off another and we know it works and it still does the same.
Of note on the left bar switch if we flick left or right on the engine stop switch the neutral light works.
Wiring has been checked and we have continuity for the switches. Any ideas?
Likewise on kne of our trx 250 sports.
We have had a auto electrician look at it and he is baffled…..

05ish Front Differential Cover with Coil.

The coil on my 2005 Sportsman 400 front differential is shot, It is showing open when I try to ohm it out.

If you have one laying around you are looking to get rid of let me know what you want for it.

Figure Ill try to throw my money here first before I buy brand new elsewhere.

I prefer to use Paypal, I will Ohm-Test part prior to installing to make sure it is working.

Maybe willing to buy entire differential if price is right. Dont care if the bearings are crap just need the cover and wiring to be in good shape.

I’m in the Dallas area if you are local and prefer face to face.

Thanks for any help yall can provide.
