06 Polaris Hawkeye Awd Not Engaging

![Question](https://atvconnection.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
I purchased an 06 Polaris Hawkeye a few weeks ago and the awd will not engage. I'm not familiar with this system and have not idea where to start. It doesn't seem to work at all. Atv runs great otherwise. I don't hear anything when I engage the switch and don't know if I should. We have 10 inches of snow now and the front wheels aren't turning at all with the switch engaged. Please help.
Thanks,
George

We have 1ft of snow here right now and the rears have been spinning like crazy. I also tried jacking the whole thing up when I first got it and the right front turned some but the left front didn't turn at all. When its on the ground in the snow and the rear wheels are spinning like crazy the rears aren't doing anything. I'm getting power to the switch.
Thanks Guys,
George

I went out tonight and changed the diff fluid. I also checked to make sure I'm getting juice to the switch and diff. Power is getting to both. After changing the fluid I jacked it up and the wheels would turn in reverse with the override switch pressed but I could stop them with my hand. The same in forward but easier to stop. Sometimes neither would turn. They seemed to turn more when the wheels were off. I'm not familiar at all with the internal workings of these diffs so any help would be appreciated. I did use the correct diff fluid.
Thanks,

Should be a recall on them I think.

Have to check the Polaris part number,but may models use the same Plastic roller cage, The JD is not alot cheaper but at least you only have to buy it once,unlike the Polaris Roller cage.
