Hey All,

New to the forums but have been reading on here for some time and there has been a great deal of knowledge learned from you guys, thanks.

I have a 2002 Polaris Sportsman 500 HO Freedom Edition and I noticed the lights on the switches itself for high beams and the run off switch are not lighting. Would anyone happen to know what wire color should I be looking for to trace these or do they share a common ground? I'm guessing a wire might be disconnected somewhere that they are not lighting or possible burned bulb but correct me if I'm wrong in thinking that's it's a led in there.

Thanks again in advance.

anyone know if a tire shop can actually
install truck type rim weights on a atv rim ? Those stick on weights never stay on, even pn a car rim, I picked up some older Itp xtr 6 ply mudlights in like new condition for basically nothing but as expected they shake at 30 mph with 6 psi in them and with 4 psi they shake at around 42 mph.
Any lower tire pressure and tire could spin on rim, ??
one tire has a tube in it.
i had that happen once on a tire with a tube in it, ride home was not fun,! lol

I got a 16 sportsman 570 with a brand new battery, when I start it it idles fine and when I go to rev it it starts popping real nasty and dies...if I try it passing cables with a truck or something it revs up perfect but by itself it won?t it idles very rough...any help what it can be? Will post a video

Went riding today, came home and pressure washed the quad, and saw this hanging down... I don't know if it is just an overflow hose with a one-way valve on the end, or is this supposed to be connected to something??

Anyone know what this is?

The hose says like 50PSI or something on it... I am hoping it is just a drain hose hanging down, and not something that needs to be connected somewhere. I couldn't see anything to connect it to, and it's getting dark so I can't see exactly where it starts from, but it comes down from above the power steering unit, somewhere up there.

Any idears?

Quad is a 2017 Sportsman 850SP.

Alright y?all I?ve searched for a couple hours now. Are all the g2 high horsepower bikes the same part number for axles? Will a 1000xmr use the same axles as a 1000xxc or a 850xxc? No where can I find a diffinitve answer. Also does anyone know the parts number of the axles for the auto parts stores? Buddy needs two front axles for his 16 1000 xmr renegade. I found two used ones for 50 bucks a piece but they are off a 14 1000 xxc. Will they fit?

Broke my plastic a arm guard on my 2012 550 xp and looking for suggestions for metal replacments.

Hello... I have an '03 bombardier traxter max, and there is a rattling noise from the front end. It's been here for a while, and you can't feel it, so we were just gonna let it be. Our only concern is getting back i n the woods and something breaking. Any ideas?

Hey
well finally got to stop by a polaris dealer and wanted to get new belt and fluids to complete my tune up of my new to me 2006 sportsman 500 efi
talking to the guys behind the counter I'm told to use the agl fluid not only for the transmission but also the rear drive as it only takes a bit and the two bottles will be enough for both.
ok I say so got home and started to take the step plates off and found the transmission fill and drain plug easy. done only really took one bottle. so I looked at the rear gear box area and low and behold no fill or drain plug. now I did youtube and some models have a rear drain and fill plug but looking at my manual via online it doesn't show in the fluid change section only oil, front demand drive and transmission area in the middle.
I have a full bottle left for later though I wonder why I don't have a rear drive section like the others
I put in a new belt and used small amounts of compressed air to clean out the clutch area and took for a spin.. kinda noticed alittle better in running the gear shifting from park to low doesn't seem as clunky .
my old belt wasn't too bad little dry and some cracks.
so for those who have a 2006 sportsman 500 efi , am I missing something or the agl fluid is for transmission and rear and it is all connected via the one fill and drain plugs in the middle that I already did.
thanks
Glenn
