thanks for your info and help. ran check again and code 25 came up but could not get the code 22 to reflash it self. is code 25 similar to 22 or totaly different? went to local polaris dealer. tech said sound like bent butterfly valve in thumb throttle housing. which has to be reset to exact specifics. hate taking my bike to dealer..... dont trust them..... i am a car mechanic by trade and i know how the game works.. hey thanks again for your help...

Well my first thought from what I have read here is a bad tps. I have never seen of a bent butterfly valve from jacking on the thumb throttle but anything is possible if you dont know what you are doing and try to fix something. As long as there is a little play in the throttle flipper you are okay. To verify the tps you do need a special tool that connects with a multimeter or hook it up to Polaris Digital Wrench software.
Its reads the resistance output of the tps and you make sure it transitions smoothly through its travel. I have seen some that are dead past a certain point but not many.
Most efi problems have been wiring issues but not always. A good dealer with trained people could be your best bet. If you know car efi stuff that is great as they are very simlar except there is no O2 sensor on any Polaris and no map sensor on twins. I could be wrong about the map sensor on an 850 twin as I have not had to mess with them yet.

hey thanks for your reply. thats what i was leaning too also but have talked to couple techs and they want to see the bike and actually see what it is doing. so i took it to a local independent shop that does good work and has good rep in this area. he rode it and said a number of things. didnt think it was the tps but would have to run elect test as you mentioned. so right now i still dont know what is wrong with it.... when i find out from the shop what it is i will post it... thanks again

I can check my manual, but I think the code 25 is the Nuetral code, and code 22 is something to do with high/low voltage output, and correlates with code 41
