I have a dumbass question. LOL When you do a reverse override mod, does it make the reverse light stay on?

You don't have reverse lights unless you wire them that way. The work lights still run off of the dedicated switch. Try a search, you will probably find some instructions on how to rig up the reverse light mod. Quadovator.com may have a kit.

I'm sorry, I can't help you with the indicator light on the '02. I am sure that one of the other guys will chime in and help out.

You're talking about on the panel, right? That light will come on when you put it in reverse, regardless of wheter you have the override button held or not.

For the pre-digital speedo Sportsmans there is a different Reverse Override kit that doesn’t use a switch because you don’t need to turn the function off to page through speedo displays. The only kicker is your yellow button becomes permanently overridden, unless you uninstall the kit. For those who won’t ever have kids playing on their machine this works out great but others with children may not want to override the safety feature.

No, the reverse indicator light does not stay on after you install the kit. Everything works just like it’s supposed to except your yellow button no longer has a function. If your switch is in AWD you will have full power and AWD whenever you shift into reverse.

The reason I asked was due to when im riding forward and I just push the button for the heck of it the reverse lamp indactor comes on. Thats why I was wandering if the kit would make it stay on.

welcome sean, you could always just run a wire between the pods power and the lower lights power switch. just find the relay you need to jump I can;t help you here.

on my scrambler I removed the switch assembly from the handle bars and took it apart for the limiter button theres a spring that pushes the button back out. remove this spring and push the button in it should stay down as if your fingers always on it. this was the easiest way for me. Ive since reworked the whole electrical system.

my bike is a 2002. good luck.
