awd ohm's
2003 SP600
Does anybody know how many ohm's of resistance or volts should be present on the two pin connector that engages the front wheels? I was told that it should read between
22.8 and 25.2 while static. I want to know what it should read while in motion. I checked the awd switch on the right handle bar, and it appears to be normally open( 2 wheel), and closed ( 4 wheel ) does anyone diagree with this!
The machine is stuck in 4 wheel, I recently replaced the roller cage, and it worked fine for about two days, then it got stuck in awd again. I haven't abused it since I did the front end work, so I doubt it is mechanical, but anything is possible. Please help I cant stand driving my buddys ARCTIC KITTEN!

No idea but my manual confirms the ohms you've listed but doesn't talk about not be able to disengage...sorry
NOTE: To test the gearcase coils resistance, use the
coil harness. The gearcase coils should measure
between 22.8 ohms and 25.2 ohms
When the AWD switch is activated, a 12 VDC current charges the central coil which creates a magnetic field. This magnetic field
attracts an armature plate keyed to a roller cage that contains 14 rollers and roller cam. The difference in
rpmby input shaft and front axles the forces the rollers up the external cam.
FRONT GEARCASE
DIAGNOSIS
Symptom: AWD Will Not Engage
1. Check the gearcase coil resistance. To test the gearcase coil resistance, use the coil harness
(Grey & Brown/White). The gearcase coils should measure between 22.8 ohms and 25.2 ohms.
2. Check the minimum battery voltage at the wire (Grey & Brown/White) that feeds the hub coil wire.
There should be a minimum of 11.80--12.0 Volts present for proper operation.
3. Inspect the armature plate for a consistent wear pattern. There should one or two distinct wear
bands (one band inside the other). If only one band of wear is present (or if there is wear
between the two bands, inspect the coil area as indicated in Step 4. A band with an interrupted
wear mark may indicate a warped plate, which may cause intermittent operation.
