On my sportsman 335 i am getting about 23.5 24 ohm of resistance is that enough? The problem i am having is i only have 3 wheel drive. On the side that is not engaging the coil is grabbing the armature plate but i can spin with my hand(their is a little resistance). Does this mean the coil is weak? Does anyone know where the best deal is too get one? thank you for all the help

Intro
Just wanted to send out a quick intro as I'm new to the forum. I just purchased my first ATV - 2004 Sportsman 400, and am excited to start getting after it. It hasn't been used much over the past few years, but it starts and runs - all be it a little rough. I'll be doing some routine maintenance on it (changing the oil, transmission/gear case fluid, spark plug, fuel & air filters, etc) to get it freshened up, and as I dig into it I'm sure I'll be looking for some help/advice.
I live in Minnesota and plan to use it on the frozen lakes this winter and then on the trails in the summer. I'm interested in riding locations/opportunities, particularly around the West Metro area.

Top cover not staying latched
Anyone experience issues with the top cover not staying latched towards the front? I have a ‘18 Rene XMR and the front clips seem to not work very well and they pop up after I start riding after a few minutes. Thank you!
Exhausted with electrical issues.
So a little backstory on how I ended up here with my 2008 Sportsman 500 HO EFI.
Branching off from my thread HERE and HERE.
I made the jump and bought a brand new wiring harness for a stupid amount of money because I was tired of hunting and fixing broken/chaffed/cracked wires, and seeing how I mainly use this thing for snow plowing, I didn't want to be chasing these things in the winter. Tearing things apart under a carport in the snow and wind is not ideal (not having a garage sucks for sure).
Taking my time uninstalling the old wiring harness and taking pictures along the way was pretty straight forward. Installation was also easy, following somewhat the same route installing the harness. Just take your time and double check along the way. Issues start to begin shortly after.
The first real snowfall of the season I was excited to do some plowing. I did some test runs and everything was checking out fine. No blink codes, idle was perfect, all in all she was running like a champ. Fast forward a few days while it sat there waiting for another snowfall. I should mention I did start it just to keep things moving as it got cold and icy, nothing extreme though.
While I was at work, my GF wanted to do some plowing so I didn't have to when I got home. She knows what shes doing, shes done this many times before, but she sent me a text saying its not running right. F me, here we go again. I get home and mess with it a little, it got dark out so I waited for my day off. It's def not running right. Pulled the blink codes and this is what I have:
So now I am trying to figures these out, under a carport, in the snow, in the wind. There seems to be short somewhere but I have no idea where.
Other than hand warmers and a reverse override mod everything else is cut/splice free. I've disconnected both along with a volt meter I have and same blink codes appear. What could cause this with a new harness? Corrosion? I'm at a loss right now and it sucks.
Any help, thoughts, suggestions, ideas etc would be appreciated. Thank you for reading this long thread.

Clutch Sheave Crack
I had an interesting day today. I purchased a new 2015 left-over Polaris this year, which for an older man I really like. Took great pains to break it in properly as the book described. No hard usage so far, no mudding, no hill climbing, no plowing to speak of, etc. Presently has approx. 70 hours on it. The majority of my use will be plowing snow, so I invested in an EPI clutch kit for it. Took the machine to my dealer today to have the clutch kit installed, and when the mechanic took the primary off he noticed a very fine crack in the outer sheave. The crack runs just about all the way from center to outer rim of sheave and is completely through the sheave. Don't know if I would have spotted this if I was doing the kit install myself, but don't have the tools, so--. Looks to me as this could be a defective casting. Anyway dealer is submitting to Polaris for warranty repair. Will get a whole new primary as Polaris does not offer individual parts. This could have been disastrous if the sheave had blown apart while running. Anyway I learned some things about Polaris warranty claims, one being that when submitting for warranty work Polaris wants pictures of not only the defective part, but also the whole machine so they can see what shape it is in, i.e., how you take care of it. Looks to me like dealers do not have the call on warranty claims but that each one must be approved by Polaris before parts can be ordered and work can be done.
She’s woke!
Happened to look around on the internet on black Friday and found RVS Performance had a sale going on. Also found BigGun exhaust has released new exhausts for the 1k and they too were on sale. I happened to find an EPI clutch kit on sale early November so I ended up getting all 3.
I also ordered a severe duty belt at the same time as the clutch kit. Glad I did too. I'd been reading the stock belts weren't made for hard riding. When I took the clutches off, I found the stock belt had been melting on the clutch faces. Took some elbow grease, but I got them all cleaned off and everything installed.
I ordered the BigGun EvoU exhaust and the DynoJet tuner with the stage 2 tune from Ryan at RVS. I'm taking it easy for a while, trying to break the belt in, but I can already feel a major difference. This thing flat gets it! It was fast before, but now it's just a MONSTER!
Probably won't be able to get her out this month except to break in the belt, but I will race it on Jan 1st and report back after. So excited!!!!!

Can Am OEM Beadlocks from Maverick fit a Renegade?
Hi all!
Looking for some tech help. An acquaintance has a 2018 Can Am Maverick 1000R XXC. He removed the original tires and wheels as soon as he got home from the dealer last spring and just offered them to me for a very reasonable price. I want to know if they'll fit my 2018 Renegade 850 XXC.
The wheels look identical (they're both 12" diameter) but his came with bigger tires (27 x 9.00-12 front and 27 x 11.00-12 rear). So, do the Maverick beadlocks have the same bolt pattern and offsets as my Renegade wheels? Will these wheels with the larger tires fit on my bone-stock Renegade?
Thanks everyone!
