I am having an issue with my 2010 sportsman the quad sat for a long time but we took it out and fired it back up .
Everything works fine including the charging system however the battery indicator light is flashing as well as the needle .
We have checked the charging system its charging to a max of 14.4 volts at high engine rpm and 13.5 at idle under heavy electrical load at idle .
Wtf is going on? The diagnostic mode shows the charging system at .7volts? yet the system is working fine .
I think the sensing wire to the speedo head must be open but cant figure out what wire tells the speedo head what voltage is being produced by the charging system .Can any polaris tech shed some light on this? the quad works fine but the blinking is driving me nuts!!!!
