okay guys i have seen lots of awd questions on here but i have never looked at them because they never applied to me until now. i was using a plow the past couple of days in my yard and at one point when i went to turn the back tires started to spin and i was in 4x4. so now thes applies to me. the awd seems to not wrok all the time. this is the first time it has ever done it to me. thanks for the advise. i know you guys are plobally tired of these kind of questions..............................shea....... ................

 

Well the most obvious question is where you going in reverse and were you holding in the over ride button down?

and was the awd lite up when you were in awd?

 

no i wasn't going in reverse. i was going foward. in the past the awd has been working but the light had never came on. but i know the awd works because i put my quad on jack stands and the awd worked fine without the light coming on. but for this instence when i was useng the plow and the back tires started to spin and the front tires wern't doing anything. like i said this is new to me its never acted up om me before.. thanks for the tips.....shea..........

 

what is this for a bike and year?

 

this is on my quad. it an 02 sportsman 700 twin 4x4, with 2652 hrs. on it

 

Is your speedometer working properly? 2000 SPs and up require the speedo to work for the operation of AWD.

 

yeah the speedometer works. also. is the speed supposed to be digitail also or is it just supposed to show the speed on the gauge? the only thing that reads on the digitail part on the pod is the hours and the gear im in. i reallly dont know what else it could be. it may just be some lose wires or i may have a sensor going out. i really hate to take it to the shop and pay just to have a test done on it. thats prolly what i'll end up having to do anyway. i really appreciate all of you guys help though. have a good one.................shea................
