I e-mailed polaris about 5 days ago, but no response. I thought I heard on this forum that polaris was aware of the problem and they re-designed a different shaft for the 2001's. I think someone said it is tapered and not a "strait cut" where it reduces down where the shifter is attached to. Let me know if I'm wrong.

 

Nah, Not you????...

 

Any ideas on what caused your stator to go bad?

I dont have a clue what caused the stator to go bad. I still have the old one, maybe I could uncover the bad coil and see if its burnt or just a wire broken.

soupcan,
The replacement shaft I got does have a tapered cut, supposedly this makes it stronger than a square cut.

 

Shift lever fixed! Bill $0.00. Thanks Polaris.

 

carbonblack,
did Polaris cover it as a defective part? If so, maybe I could get my money back for the shift shaft I bought for mine.
