2017 Outlander Winch won’t pull in after using plow

Hey Everyone,

So I have a 2017 Can Am Outlander I've had for almost two years and I was plowing with it on Monday night like I have the last two seasons and when I was about 75% done my winch wouldn't go in. I took the quick attach plow off and the winch still wouldn't go. Tried again a few hours later that night and in the morning and afternoon no go. I drop it off Wednesday night at my dealership which is about an hour away and they look at it as soon as they opened today Thursday and the winch works fine. They test it for about 30 minutes and even haul a fork lift with it a few hours later while I'm there to pick it up (I left work a little early) and it works fine. I get home after bringing it back and do the quick attach on the plow goes on perfect like always. Put the plow down and drive half way down the driveway it won't go up again. Take the plow off and it won't come up even without the plow. I'm assuming it has to do with the magnet shut off, but any advice anyone could give would be a huge help. I can't keep driving to the dealership and leaving work early to get it plus pay labor. Probably they could do more if I brought the plow next time which I will obviously if I have to. Thank you in advance.

Carb issues???

Hey guys I have a 2001 trailblazer 250. It will start and idle just fine but when the throttle gets half way it dies. So in order for me to ride I have to have the choke on. But it doesnt idle with the choke on so when I slow down to come to a stop I have to flip the choke off but then to ride again flip it back on. I'm sure it's air and fuel issues but I don't know a whole lot about it and never cleaned a carb before what do you guys suggest I start looking at first??? Please help

570 axles fit 570 touring

I just bought front HD axles for my 2014 570 for $600 and now I’ve decided to sell it and buy a 2017 570 touring. Does anybody know if axles will fit the touring?

Idiot who assembled this 2001 sportsman 500 caused this magnet wire sheath to be cut

Maybe it is the construction policy, don't know.
Went to open up the cover to replace the speedometer cable wire.
They wrapped both wires around the brake line, ok I guess...
BUT, they put these wires very tight against the brake line bracket bolt with a cable tie, which has a sharp edge on the clamp, which cut into the cable sheath. That metal clamp edge rests right on the cables, and cuts into them over time.
And placed these wires on the forward facing side of said clamp causing even greater stress on the insulation.
Luckily, it had not yet damaged the inner wires.
I undid the top bolt and placed the wire in a better position and covered it with some black loctite polyurethane rubber made for roof sealing.
So now I need to check the other wheel's wires too.

I bought a used speedometer sensor off a newer ATV with about 1000 miles, and noted in about the same spot, a slight cut in the wire sheath, so must be their assembly policy, it's not good to cause wire damage for the end user, but its good for business! as in selling and servicing with parts replacements.
