makes a reverse override lock 15.00 plus tax. if you are in all wheel drive and need to go in reverse the awd is on automaticly, no need to hit the button.

I know this works on the 03's but I'm not for sure it works on the 04's.
Polaris has incorporated a safety feature on all their 4wd models. This feature, which is operational all the time when reverse is selected, will limited engine power and cut out the front wheel drive unless you push the "override" button.
One of the main reasons you would want to do this mod is because when you get stuck and the only way out is reverse, it is impossible to pull the ATV backwards while applying throttle AND pushing the override button. It is also very helpfull when you use your ATV to plow and need 4wd every time you back up with the weight of the plow hanging off the front.
This mod will give you 4wd and full power when in reverse without having to push the override button. This is for all Polaris Sportsman models with the new style speedo (2003) and Sp700, 02. Continue down below for pre 03 model instructions.
The problem with the new style, is that the function button for the speedo is combined with the override button and it is not as straight forward as the old style speedo. Doing it this way everything works as it should exactly the way it did before the mod.
The nicest thing about this mod is that you do not need to cut any wires or drill any holes.
You will need to purchase a standard 4 pin, 12v relay, 4 pieces of 16 gauge wire about 8" long, 4 female crimp on spade connectors(for connection of wires to relay), and 4 wire splice connectors.(they are usually blue and you simply insert the wires and squeeze with pliers, then fold back the protective locking cover)
Open the pod and locate the wiring harness coming from the speedo.
Relay terminal #30 connect to Polaris brown wire
Relay terminal #87 connect to Polaris wire gray/orange
Relay terminal #86 connect to Polaris wire red/white
Relay terminal #85 connect to Polaris wire purple.
Use dielectric grease at all electrical connections to prevent corrosion in the long run or even better, liquid tape.
To test, simply put it in reverse with the engine running, if the speedo flases the word "SLOW" (just like it did before the mod, when you pressed the override button) you did everything correct. Enjoy

Pre 2003 and almost all models that do NOT have the combined override/speedo function button.
Trace wires from the override button (gray/white & gray/orange) Cut the gray/orange and tape up both ends. Cut the gray/white and tape up the end which goes to the override button. Connect the other end of the gray/white to the red/white (ignition supplied 12v) Done deal

I'd like to wire up a small toggle switch to use in addition to the factory yellow button on my 02 325 Magnum. Simply eliminating the wire would work, but I want it to work like stock just cause I'm like that...
Which wire am I gonna want to switch? I could probe them and find out but, if you know for sure, if you know that makes it easier.
Thanks!!

switch????
why the hell would you do that??
make the overide work AUTOMATICALLY like you live in the year 2005
use a relay to connect the two wires going to the overide button when it recieves a signal from the reverse switch
you want a switch so that sometimes like when you need to winch and steer and ride out of a tight spot all at the same time you can use your only free hand to hold down the overide button??!?!?

I want a switch that is discreet so that if anyone gets on it who is a poor rider or whatever, I want them to have both hands on the bars. I understand the logic in using a relay to eliminate it, but I want it to be there still...K?
I'll just probe the wires and find out where to switch it so I can use it only when I want...

I’ve never done this mod to an ’03 or ’04 but have wired many ’99 through ‘02s and none of them required a relay. Back then there wasn’t a speedo with a digital display to page through so we just changed the wiring to eliminate the yellow button without the option of a switch to lock it or return it to stock. It just stayed “overridden” permanently and often we’d use the yellow buttons to operate a horn. The only minor irritation this presented is sometimes when we’d switch in and out of AWD one hub would stay locked until we’d change direction (reverse or forward) for a few feet to unlock it. That happened on all the machines with the locking hubs, it just seemed to happen a little more often on the ones that were wired with the yellow button permanently overridden.
