850 EPS quit working
Red light on dash flashing and seems like a mist of oil on unit :ponder::ponder:
2006 Sportsman 450
After looking for it for about 10 minutes located Battery got the cover off, but don’t know how to get it out of the casing so I can clean the contacts and hook the Tender to it.
Another question I use it to plow snow, and when I go to lift the blade I have to hit the in switch some times 3-4 times before it will engage the winch. What do I look for here, and what is the remedy? I know contacts have to be clean and that is what I want to do as part of the service, need some advice.
posted this a few days ago but maybe in the wrong area of the forum.

1999 Sportsman 335 LR60 issues
My LR60 has 6 wires. 2 yellow, blue, orange, red and brown. The Ebay LR60 has 5. All the wires are the same color, minus the missing wire that is brown. According to my 99’s wiring diagram the brown wire is ground, or common. looking at the newer 2000 diagram, the 5 wires on the newer LR60 control the same functions as the old LR60 that is no longer available… I am assuming the case of the part is acting as ground, and no longer needs the 6th wire to provide it. My LR60 is inside a black plastic box, the Ebay LR60 is inside a small metal case.
By now you know my question, can I use the newer LR60 on my 4 wheeler? I would get one and test it out, but at $165, I’d rather not just buy blind…. If anyone has an educated guess, it’s welcome!!
