Default Need help with the SC500 AWD system.

I need some advice. I have a 2000 Scrambler 500 4x4. The front right tire is engaging when the AWD switch is OFF. The left doesn't do it, just the right. Does anyone have any ideas on what to check for?
This is how I got it back from my Handy Polaris Dealer!!!!
Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Change Your Hub Fluid!!!!!!

Make sure not over or under fill. Take the allen nut out on each hub rotate till the hole is on the bottom
make sure all the old fluid comes out rotate the wheel is at 3oclock fill till the starts to come out.
This is usally the problem from what you described
Hope this helps.

I second what Alpine said. Drain fluid, replace with Mobil1 ATF fluid. It doesn't hurt to change it on a yearly basis.
