Lost speed display

The mph reed out on the display stoped working, shows 0mph. If im cruising like 20-30mph it will show 0 then jump around then back to 0. Did that for about an hour then it started working again. Im guessing its a loose connection. Where is the speend sensors on the 15′ 800 outlander xmr.

Also i lost the high beams, im positive its the switch but is there any other place to look? I already checked the fuses

Winch Contactor

Could someone tell me where the warn winch contactor would be located on a 2009 800r Max? Used the plow for the first time this year and get the furthest from the house and the damn thing wouldn’t go back up. I fairly confident that I just need to replace the contactor.

Continuing trouble with shifting

I have been having continuous issues with my clutch and shifting on my can am outlander l 450. i think the shifting wasnt amazing from start as my friends 2016 570l is so much smoother. i installed a clutch kit to try to open her up and get more power and since then i have had continuous issues with shifting and the clutch after i flooded the housing and had bad seals causing mud to get in system.
To try to fix the issue i have cleaned the clutch entirely and regreased everything and it was fixed but then after 2 rides it started getting worse until now when i cant even shift it and barely got it in neutral to put in garage. i am about to open clutch housing again to clean everything but im wondering if my bearing is bad, or if my gearbox oil is low but i only have 57 hours on it so i don’t see how i could be low. it has become continuous issues every weekend with the machine since then and i don’t know what to do to fix it. It has gotten worse since i bought it and takes fun out of riding it at this point. thanks for any help you guys might have.

Multi-function switch, high / low beam, kill, DPS, start

I lost high beams on my last fall so I attempted to rebuild my existing handlebar switch assembly however; after losing some small pieces during the disassembly I decided not to hunt for them and just order new. I received my new switch and it looks totally different. I like the layout much better and the high / low beam part of the switch looks like a much better system but my question is, is this the write one? Being winter and the fact I have an LED light bar on the front I am not going to jump into this project until spring. Has anyone here changed out this component and experienced this? Also, do you guys with 15’s and 16’s; does your switch assembly look like the one on my handle bar or the one in my hand in these photos?
