awd error code,.driver circuit short to b plus.I was having issues with my winch overloading the elect system.Last time it shut down before I properly fixed it there was a long buzz from inside the cab I think.I now have no awd and of course check eng light comes on.2 things on this test that interests me are the chassis fuse and awd relay.Anybody know if there is a chassis fuse on the ace and exactly which relay in the fuse box is the awd one?Is there a test ?https://www.otbpowersports.com/forum...c.php?f=9&t=64

 

Turned out to be the voltage regulator was on its way out.Has totally failed now and new one ordered from Amazon.

 

Let us know how it works once you get the new voltage regulator in.

 

Will do .Sadly the vendor used fedex so right now its on a tour of the lower 48 with stops near you

 

That sounds about right. I'm fed up with FedEx. The post office too. They take too long getting my packages here. And I got several packages that were shipped by UPS or DHL to the post office, and they delivered it. Two carriers = twice as many chances to lose it or otherwise screw up. Right now UPS is taking a week to get a package from Washington to Michigan. They used to get things here in half the time. It's like they're intentionally slowing it down, but it will be here tomorrow afternoon.

 

E gads! After handling a parcel from cali to soo mich fedex hands it off to usps for final delivery instead of doing it themselves!So instead of being at My American Address at around 12 god knows when now.On a slightly different tack I have to take off the side of the atv body to get to the voltage regulator .They sure pack those parts tightly in there .

 

Well after a little cursing the new regulator is in and working.Awd is back and check engine light has gone away.Just a few bolts and plastic body rivets to install now.

 

Success! How's the weather in the soo? It's cold down here but warming up. It's supposed to get up to 60 Thursday!!! I'll be walking around barefoot and wondering when the snow in my yard will melt.

 

In non metric it was 34f today ,but in a day or 2 were suppose to get another dump of snow.Perfect time to get the atv fixed as I can plow and save my poor back.Im sick of winter but 2 more months most likely.

 

Northern winters last too long. We'll be getting rain this weekend and no snow. I just checked an online conversion and 60 degrees F would be 15.5 degrees to the whole world outside of my stupid country. I can't believe it's going to get that hot. Well, actually, I believe anything can happen in Michigan. My dad's family lived just south of Soo, Michigan and we used to visit my uncles there. On Easter 1971 I was playing in snow 1.8 meters deep in April. That was whatever didn't melt yet after it quit snowing. There was a big snow drift where one of my uncles tied a a ribbon on a tree at the top of the drift. When the snow finally melted in summer he measured it and the snow drift was 4.3 meters high. That's 100 times as much snow as there is in my yard.
