My belt light just came on at 123 hours and around 1866km. I know it says on the decal that it should be inspected by 1700 km, but it seems it came on at a random time? It's just solid, not flashing and I can still ride in High and 4WD.
I'm going to get it replaced/inspected as soon as I can borrow my uncle's truck.
Do you think it would be safe to go for a little 10KM spin, or did the warning come on due to a detection of worn belt?

Wringer says:
1) remove seat, unplug black and grey 4-pin connectors
2) swap plugs, grey to black and black to grey
3) turn on ignition switch, belt light should be flashing quickly
4) disconnect 2-pin belt switch above torque converter cover, belt light should be flashing slowly
5) let flash for at least 5 seconds
6) turn off ignition switch
7) reconnect 4-pin connectors black to black and grey to grey, reconnect 2-pin belt switch
8) turn on ignition switch to confirm belt light is out
Your light will be coming on any time now. The reset procedure is quite simple and can be performed out on the trail in about 3 minutes.
Hope this helps you out.
BTW, I have only made one adjustment to my belt on my BF and I have over 1800 miles on it. Clutch system on the BF is great and the power of the BF helps on the clutch life. I doubt that you need to worry about adjustment yet.

Need to clear up some confusions here!
1. There are two clocks on Brute and Prairie (360, 650, 700 & 750) - one that you see on the dash meter and one that you can't see inside the ECU. Meter clock counts ign on time. ECU clock counts only the actual engine run time. Belt maintenance reminder time looks at the ECU clock. Anc ECU clock hour is always higher than meter clock.
2. Belt Maintenance Reminder Light - This is the solid on light and does NOT affect the vehicle running or 4WD. It's just a reminder that comes on every 100 hour per ECU clock.
3. Belt Failure Light - This is when the light is flashing. There will be 2 abnormal things you will notice. Vehicle speed is limited to 5 mph only. Can't use 4X4 mode. Two conditions can cause the belt light to flash as following:
3.A. - Belt switch inside CVT cover is tripped, meaning loose or broken belt hit the switch. Belt needs to be tightened up (by shim adj) or replaced. Then do the reset procedure to rese the light.
3.B. - Belt swtich inside CVT cover is NOT tripped. Then just do the reset procedure only. This is an electronice falst signal that somehow made the ECU to sense a belt failure that didn't happen.
