high beams not working

I have a 13 outlander and the high beams are not working. I don’t have power to the either bulb (but low beams work). Does anyone have a diagram/manual I can download?

Would the switch be the culprit? I didn’t go deep into this other than seeing if the high beam worked on a separate relay in the fuse box but it appears all lights work on one fuse and one relay.

TricLED Angel eye’s

Well called and spoke the I’m guessing the owner of the place he talked highly of the product so figured what the heck and ordered.

Once I got them I noticed where the wires tie in the solders are left kinda exposed so I I put black rtv where all the wires meet the board itself. Next annoying issue, (which I asked him on the phone) the adhesive backing was not good at all! My garage was 70 and I also left the lights on and heat gun going to make sure everything was nice and toasty, put them on and they fell right off lol.

So like anything I’ve put on… Old gorilla super glue never lets me down applied a small bead and boom instant bond so after getting them all on holes drilled Yada Yada…I have to say cool product but could use some refining

CanDoo/BUDs ??

Ok I know there has been a decent amount of discussion about these products, but my question is…. Which is better? I see the Candoo is a lot cheaper than the BUDs system. What are the pros and cons of each.. Would like to hear your opinions !!!

Heated grip elements under stock grips?

Just picked up a new renegade 1000 and love the grips but would like them heated. I have the 5 setting symtec box to use and was wondering if I can put heating elements under them and how hard would it be?
I saw a video online of a guy doing it on a motorcycle and of course he makes it look super easy.
Also would the elements work with with the 5 level symtec heating box?
It’s really not because I’m cheap but because the heated grips I’ve seen really suck as far as grips go. They really lack grip.

G2 throttle body removal installation guide

For those owning a G2 Canam outlander/renegade are well aware how much work is involved in removing the airbox. To do a simple mod such as a bored TB may seem overwhelming due to the airbox, the airbox does not need to be removed for a larger throttle body and can be done in 15min.
This is a guide on how I personally do a TB swap, this installation will be a little more in depth as it will be of installing a new 2016 1000R 54mm TB and simple modifications to install on a 2012-2015 Canam atv.

First step remove seat 🙂
Second step remove 3 plastic panels

3rd locate TB

4th remove all 3 clamps completely

Locate and loosen off the (2) 10mm nuts

Will need a few tools similar as this to wedge the air box up about 3/4" from the top of the frame

Now use them to wedge under the airbox, make sure not to apply too much pressure and ensure the airbox isn’t freezing cold as plastic becomes brittle at cold temps

Now with the wedges in place you can see how much the TB lifted out of the lower rubber boot

Now turn TB and remove the TPS(throttle position sensor) and air idle valve solenoid connectors

Now to make the TB come out easier I use a heat gun to warm up the rubber boots to make them more flexible

Now with the boots warm to the touch gently pull the TB out

Simple as that, now the following will regard about doing a 54mm TB install

The difference between 46mm TPS (left) and 54mm TPS (right) the 54mm TPS will not work as it will fail to calibrate when doing a TPS reset but it has the same connector, also will cause an engine light and limp home mode if tried
The old 46mm TPS works on the 54mm TPS besides one hole lining up to nothing, simple fix, 2 zip ties, 1 for holding the TPS tight to the TB and the other for piece of mind

Removal of the throttle cable is straight forward and install is the reversal of removal

54 (left) beside the 46 TB (right)

Now to install TB, apply heat again to help ease the TB back into place

I slide the bottom of the TB in first since the bottom rubber boot is much more beefy then the top boot

Bam it’s in its home

Now remove the wedges placed under the airbox, tighten the (2) 10mm nuts back up on the airbox, reinstall 3 clamps and loosely tighten them, reconnect TPS and air idle valve solenoid connectors, turn throttle body to correct position and tighten clamps and re zip tie the throttle cable back into place. Reinstall plastic panels and reset TPS

Now reinstall the seat and adjust fuel controller if needed and enjoy the new found throttle response 😀

Anyone make their own snowblower?

I just bought a 42 inch MTD blower that I want to adapt to one of my ATVs :tools1: Wondering if anyone on the forum has done this and if they have any tips I could use in the process. I’ve watch countless videos on youtube but most of them just show them blowing snow after their done. I have many questions at this point, do I need four wheel drive, is it better to use a quad with a transmission or is the CVT ok for this, what is the best way to attach it to the machine and so on. Any help is appreciated. :aniwheeler6:

Any tips? Ordering my new xtp soon

So, I have never ordered something so cool before, right from the factory. Makes me giggle like a little kid thinking about it. So I dont get mind raped by the dealer Does anyone have any good advice for ordering a new bike? It will be purchased in canada, eh.

Im going to get the 2015 or 16 xtp max, 800 or 850 respectively. Im also going to buy me and the lady new lids, and a ramp most likley to load the thing. Point is Ill be dropping about 18 or 19 grand befor tax.

The bike will be purchased cash. I would prefer the 16, but will buy the 15 if there is a deal to be had. Im going to fuss and complain about the pdi, delivery, set up and grind the guy to no end, I have no shame. Problem is there is only a handfull of dealers within 1000 km of me, so they know I cant just go to the next guy. Poker face is a must.

What would you do?
