So over the course of the past weekend, I’ve had troubles when trying to start my rig. Tonight it acted up again, so I figured it was time to finally post and maybe get some guidance here since I’m now out of warranty as of the 15th.
So tonight I drove down the street to a buddy’s place, where it then sat outside in about 25 degrees for about 3 hours. I came out to start it, and when I turned the key over nothing happened. Usually you can hear the fuel pump cycle and the lights come on(i think). Tonight I heard absolutely nothing. The speedo/gauges came on like normal, and I did notice the check engine light on. I tried to then start the rig, and nothing happened. It was like the unit was dead, but it wasn’t. It would not turn over or anything. The voltage gauge read 12.4-12.2. I noticed the interior light was working, but very dim. After a few times of trying to get it to start and cycling the key, the fuel pump finally ran. After it started, the lights did not want to work. About 10 seconds after starting, they just turned on. From there it ran fine and started right back up once I got home.
There were also a few times this weekend where the rig would start, but I would get a check engine and power steering light. This was alway during a cold start…both cold engine and cold outside. It would all go away after it was running for a while.
A little background…it was just at the dealership for a few items. One of them being a voltage regulator for charging issues and the recall for the fuel tank/vent. I’m not sure if any of this would be related, but figured I would add this info just in case.
Any help or direction would be great! To be honest, I’m getting pretty frustrated with all things Polaris right now. This machine seems to have more problems than anything I’ve ever owned. If I don’t find anything tomorrow, I’ll be touching base with the dealer on Tuesday(not open Mondays 🙁 ) to discuss my options. It seems like they never want to cover anything anyways so I’m sure I’ll just be going down a rabbit hole.
Thanks for all of the support!
