I am new to this chat stuff so bear with me. I have 2007 sportsman 500 EFI that after running a bit the battery starts to flash on the indicator. I know the battery is charged and holds a charge. and there doesn't seem to be a draw. Last week the high beam head light would come on and go out when ever it wanted to. Do you have any idea's where to start? I had this happen on a 2006but sold it before we had to dig into this.

Welcome. I would say you have a loose wire somewhere. Check also the output of the stator on the battery when idling and revving.

I have been told that the battery light will come on if the battery is either overcharging or undercharging. I had this happen on mine and the dealer diagnosed my stator was failing. I am replacing my stator this week. After doing some research it appears the stator can be problematic.

had this happen on my old 2004 400 sportsman, it had a bad voltage regulator

Thanks for the advise! I will definitely check these options out!
