on my 2003 500ho sportsman While checking under the front cover………I found a brown wire with a ‘slip on" (female spade lug) the other end goes to what looks like a selonoid…….any idea where it might go?
everything seems to work ok
thanks as always

Does the 2004.5 sportsman 700 use the same front/rear differential as the 2004? Need to order a bearing and seal kit and don’t want to order wrong parts.

Has anyone tried other synthetic oils as opposed to the grossly overpriced ps=4. I would think that 4 cycle 5-50 synthetic Mobil 1 should do the job. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance. Wayne

Hi,

I hoping someone can give me some help.

Over the winter I tried starting my ’99 Polaris Magnum 500, It was very cold and was struggling to turn over, I ended up draining the battery….. so I took the battery in and charged it up. a couple months later I just went and put the battery back in now that the warmer weather is here, and now I get NO POWER!! the ignition lights don’t even turn on, nothing…. even my winch is dead… the battery is showing a full 12V… but no power at all….. Before I start either ripping this apart to figure it out or lug it to the shop…. can anyone give me any hints to look at?
