I have an early model 2004 Polaris Sportsman 700 ATV which has a malfunctioning instrument display cluster and all wheel drive system. Some gear shift icons are not displaying properly but more important the all wheel drive is not engaging properly in low and high gear positions.
When the gear shifter is engaged in neutral position the N icon is not displayed but the machine is actually in neutral - engine revs and the machine does not move.
When the gear shifter is in the low position the L icon is displayed but the all wheel drive does not engage unless the yellow instrument button on the left handle bar is pressed.
When the gear shifter is in the high position, the N icon is displayed and the all wheel drive will not engage even when the yellow button on the left handle bar is pushed.
When the gear shifter is in the reverse position, the R icon shows and all wheel drive works as normal by pressing the yellow button on the left handle bar. (Of course for all this checking, the all wheel drive switch on the right handle bar is in the 'on' position.)
Last fall before I put the bike away for the winter, the all wheel drive was working ok but when the gear shifter was in the high position, a L icon showed on the instrument cluster. The all wheel drive was working when the all wheel drive switch was in the on position and the gear shifter was in the low or high position. Reverse worked ok as well.
Any suggestion for a fix, or for where to clean connections would be great.
Thanks
