Where are you?

 

Man that sucks

 

@magic
Way up north, deep in the north east Texas woods.

 

I just went out and looked at mine. There are 4 wires on my switch. 1 green and white,2red,3black and white,4 red. The switch does two things. first power everything up , and second to send power to the starter. 1 of the red wires will power everything and the other should go to the starter. Ther green and white will go to one of the red wires and the black and white to the other. One of the red wires will be 12v power all the time from the battery. You will need to figure out which one is constant power. You can do this by process of elimination. Run a jumper from one of the red wires and touch it to the green/white wire . One of two things will happen. Dash lights come on or starter engages. If neither happens try the same thing using the other red wire . You need to get the dash lights on first which means everything is powerd up. Once you get it to that point then the other red wire will now be hot. Use that red wire to touch to the remaining wire to turn over the starter. Once it starts remove that wire or tape it up so it can't short out. Good luck.

 

a test light will help if you have access to one. Are you at Gator run?

 

I'm up around Maud Tx, private property. I think I have a test light, I'm going to tackle your directions early at first light in the morning. Thanks for helping, ill buy the beer if I ever get a chance

 

The power of this forum is GREAT!!!:ride::ride::ride:

 

Here is a tip to all
Take a spare key and put it under the cap of the shifter this will avoid the kind of problem MADNess is having.

How did you load it on the trailer with out a key?

 

I keep my toys loaded up and ready, all I have to do is tie down and go. Yea ill be putting a spare key someplace after this for sure!

 

I keep my spare key in the console of my truck. Let me know if you need any more info .
I've had to jump on here while a long way from home for info with an issue and always gotten fast help.

 

What a bummer! Sounds like Magicman has you going in the right direction. Might ad that when you find your constant it will have to stay tied to what wire keeps it and then the starter wire will have to be touched, that way it will stay running. Then you might tape the Hot Starter Wire to keep it from hitting the starter while your having fun!!

 

OK, I'm hiding another key on board. I have almost done this same thing myself. Take off thinking you have everything and at the last minute notice the RZR key on the bench. Good luck, sounds like a PITA, but worth the effort for a day's ride.

 

X2... Though I never thought I could lose my key, the possibility is always there.

Let's just hope he didn't just turn Bruce into an "accomplice" lol

 

I thought about that before I posted, member since 2010 with over a hundred posts and to top it off he is from my area so I figured he was ok.
Just got in from workin all day, glad it worked out for you Shane.

 

Talking of a spare key. anyone know of a way to have on made up, or do you have to get it from Polaris?

 

You can take your key to a locksmith and have them make you copies. I got two made that way for $2 each. Won't come with a nice dust cover though.

 

My spare is on the toy hauler key ring. Have to have them to load it and lock up.

 

I owe Yall one! Thanks magic! Been riding all day!!! I'll buy the beer!

 

Glad to hear all was not lost
Have fun be safe

 

I'm bad about loading keys when i drink. I've got a spare taped to the RZR and keep one inside my truck's glove box. Good to know you got it going.

 

Yeah... I lost my key at mud jam... you could say I had a few to many! Had it hot-wired in less than 2 minutes and enjoyed the rest of the ride. Bought a new switch the next day for $40 on ebay and when I installed it took less than 5 minutes. Keys on a RzR are good for nothing... Don't forget to have a good way to lock them up!

 

I tether my key to one of the bars under the dash with a piece of small cord..if im somewhere I don't want to leave it in the ignition I tuck it up under the dash. A lost key is a PITA I don't want to deal with when I'm out riding

 

Ill keep an eye open for that now. Haha.

 

Im about 15 miles from you if I can help

 

Man... really was a blast... wound up at Barnwell Mountain close to Gilmer Tx... spent Saturday rock crawling and mudding ALLL day was FANTASTIC!

Once I pulled the plug out of the ignition and saw 4 wires... I kept thinking... wow... I had NO idea it would be this simple... I was kinda shocked atually... but... thankfully, I got to ride

 

We where sitting on top of one of Mountains at Barnwell

Thanks to Magic for the spare key LOL

 

Maybe I should apply for a patent on that key. LOL Glad it worked out for ya not to mess up your weekend. We just went to barnwell over memorial weekend. Great place to ride, good camping areas. Trails there are fun, you can go fast or climb hard. Let us know next time you plan to head up that way and we'll go with ya.

 

That sounds great Magic, will do We did some SERIOUS climbing LOL... it was serious enough, when we popped out of the top of a few places, the rock crawlers all parked at the top kept looking at us confused ROFL.. I was really really really impressed with the Rzr... some of the stuff.. just didnt seem possible for anything to climb... the Rzr did it just fine :ride:

 

yeah I think I made it up everything but DEWOODY. Just couldnt get over the ledge at the top.

 

What part of town you from?

 

my wife and I have a place around Porter on a little private lake. Close to 59 and 242.

I was truly amazed at the Rzrs rock climbing... we made it over and through things that just didnt even seem possible... never ceases to amaze me this toy
