Thanks Mongrol for the info Quote---You can get the system out of the "wedging" condition without turning the power off to the AWD system, but it is very difficult and not always repeatable. The only true, 100% way to release the clutch is to turn the power off and put the bike in reverse. This will release the pressure on the clutch and the springs inside the clutch will return the rollers back to the neutral position. -----I will try this now that I know what the correct (wedging) terms are. The only part about this problem I have is Im not switching to ADC when the wedging happens.I will have to remember to turn machine off and put it in reverse and report back. thanks again!!! mongrol

I didn't read this thread all the way through,or the link so if I am off base sorry. I think the wedging he is referring to is the AWD rollers,not the ADC...I've mentioned this before...On my XP if I loaded it fairly heavily in AWD while in reverse(ie backing up a steep incline while turning around) then it would cause it to stay locked in when I wnet back forward,I mean like a locker..hard steering ect..you could tell the front was locked. I had a trick down pat for releasing it and iirc I would have to put it in 2wheel and back up a little to release the front end. I actually locked it on purpose on a few occasions when I wanted the front to be locked in "locker" style.


Edit..duh I just fully read the excerpt that you quoted. I read your first post and immediately my experience came to mine......anyway yep...that is exactly how I would get mine to release. I think that is just a side effect of the design,your machine likely isn't doing anything that the don't all do.
