HELP! Can any one please tell me how to reset the belt light or computer. Will crank and idles fine but sputters on acceleration:.

 

Do a search first.
There are tons of info here.

 

Thanks ! This I Know. Do you have any other suggestions? I would really like to chat with
someone.

 

Found this info on another site, so not sure if it works or not since my 650 brute has not had a belt light yet.

Prairie 650 - belt light reset procedure

This document applies to 2003 P650. The 360 belt reset is similar to this. The 2002 650 does not have a belt light, and never needs this procedure. However all these machines can have their belt trip switch flipped by a bad belt. A flashing belt light will affect the engine and make it run poorly. The engine will not work properly until the switch and/or light is reset. Disconnecting the battery does not fix it either. The belt warning light may be lit due to a loose belt that has tripped the switch. However, the belt light is programmed to come on automatically for new machines at about 100 hours to force customers back to the dealership to inspect the belt. The flashing belt warning light may not go away after flipping the belt failure switch back to "On" (a bad belt flips it to the "off position"). The following procedure resets the belt light. Note: there have been rumors that the ON/OFF label on the belt trip switch has been mislabeled on a couple of machines. You may want to double check your switch is flipped toward the rear of the ATV (bad belt flips switch forward). The switch is inside the CVT cover. Do not turn the ignition on with the cover removed, bad stuff happens. A poorly connected battery can cause the light to continue to come on even if the switch doesn't flip. A bad ignition switch might also be a cuplrit. Always inspect the drive belt before resetting the belt warning light. 2003 650 Belt light reset procedure.

1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.

2. Disconnect the belt failure switch at the 2-pin connector above the CVT cover. (Note: Just follow the wires coming from the rectangular black box on the CVT Cover to locate this connector.)

3. Disconnect both sets of 5 pin connectors located above the CVT cover. Note: These connectors are located just beneath the shift handle on the right side of the 650; one is black and one is grey.

4. Connect these 5 pin connectors to their opposite pairs (grey to black and black to grey).

5. Turn the ignition switch ON.

6. Observe the belt-warning lamp. It should be flashing at a 0.4 second interval for a few seconds then start to flash slower. Let the lamp flash for at least seven seconds.

7. After seven seconds or more, turn the ignition switch off.

8. Reconnect 5 pin connectors to their proper location (black to black, grey to grey).

9. Connect the belt failure switch 2-pin connector (wires from CVT cover).

10. Turn the ignition switch on to confirm that the belt warning light is not flashing.

Retry this procedure if needed. As far as I have heard it always works if the belt switch isn't tripped and there are no electrical problems. The Vforce procedure is basically the same except the connectors are under the seat and there is no belt trip switch.

Lots of info out there how to turn off the light.
But no one seems to bother to know why the belt light started to flash in the first place. The problem would reoccurr if the source of the problem is not taken care of. It's like putting a band-aid. So after turning off the light, see what caused the belt light flashing and do something about it.
If the switch is tripped, it is obvious that the belt is worn out or broken. That's easy - all mechanical.
If the switch is not tripped, it will cause you some head scratching - electrical issue, usually a break in the belt swtich circuit.

 

Agreed, but the question asked was not what caused the belt light, it was how to reset it. Hence my post.

Your very welcome, I am glad to be of some assistance, But like Hayashi stated you should find out what caused the light in the first place now, You dont want to be stranded on the trail somewhere with a broken or smoked belt.
