The tach doesn't work.
The code seems to be the servo motor
that runs the power valves.
I tried a different tach. No luck.
Any ideas. HELP
The engine light blinks 7 times and just keeps doing it.
It seems to run fine.

I had some wires rub thru where they are routed behind the steering post right above the gas tank. Also they rubbed thru the wiring harness under the motor, I never had this problem tho. My tach would also stop working. I just taped everything up & have never had a problem since.

that code is stating that the servo motor is non-operational or disconnected.

Is this a new sled to you, or did this code just appear?

I rode it last year but can't remember if it did it.

HMM,

I am betting it is an issue with a wire rub through on the frame.

You will need to pull out the wiring harness from underneath the motor. Unhook the harness from the front of the sled, and tape a small diameter rope to it. Pull the harness out from the rear of the sled and look for rub through area. Fix those areas, and use the rope to fish the wire harness back through the underside of the engine (or route the harness over the top side of the engine).


I sent you an email
