@@theeddies yes! They look friggin great man! I'm actually a little embarrassed by mine now🤣. Just started a full time job and couldn't get to the post office so I literally just got some international stamps. Should be able to get some out for you today. Sorry for the delay, It's been a rough couple of months.
What do you think this happened? Ideas to prevent it. I have a '21 Polaris Pro XP, same exact thing just happened. Thanks to your video I figured it out.
I think they either should have a different torque setting and/or should have red Loctite on the bolts at the factory. We put loctite on and the problem did not happen again. As to why they are prone to shake loose, your guess is as good as mine. I am surprised they are still having this problem, not very impressed with Polaris QC. Thanks, Eddie
Its a variable reluctance sensor - essentially a coil wrapped around a magnet , so when the knobs get close , the magnetic field changes and generates a signal.
Right, so our thought was since it was measuring crankshaft speed from those knobs, if it got a signal from a stray piece of broken screw passing under it, the computer would sense an error and kill the ignition. That is our working hypothesis for why it just cut out like the key was turned off. Good to hear from you, Bill.
@@theeddies lol you need some WD40. WD40 should just make a beer and get it over with. Their slogan could be 'There's no way in hell' (as in "There's no way in hell that's ever coming loose!") Their commercial: "When you've mangled it with a pipe wrench, and have the 3rd degree burns to prove it, reach for a 40... a WD40 'cus there's no way in hell that's ever coming loose." --- You ever use Loctite Quick Metal press fit repair?
@@johnstrange6799 LOL. WD40 oz. That is hilarious. They could even put it in a can with a long red straw for maximum laziness. I have not used the press fit stuff. Have you?
@@theeddies Even the bottle is complete shit. You know when you would normally see the frosty mug and sweaty bottle in an ad?? In the WD40 image there's a nut welded to the bottle cap.
Same thing happened to me. I’m afraid I have a blown engine. I hear the fuel pump, all the lights turn on. I have no codes. But it won’t even try to start. Kills my battery right away
Thanks, I hope it helps. It is a pretty simple place to start. One thing I did not mention in the video that we did was take rear shock off the bottom mount and move it out of the way. Much easier. Good luck, Eddie
Just went through this today with a 2020 sportsman 450HO. All three bolts backed out and sheared off. The quad has 502 miles on it. Found one bolt head in the case, the other two are nowhere to be found. Probably in the oil pan somewhere. FUCK POLARIS!!! Cheap Basterds can't afford locktite on three little bolts! It's my son's quad. I'll stick with my Honda's!!
Hey I know this is an old post my 450 ho Polaris did same thing luckily on a start up it’s a 2020 one bolt head was in case fished another one out of oil pan with magnet however one is still mia like you said in pan did you continue to run yours or did you pull engine to pull pan you think likely it will creep back up into stator housing and what about putting a magnet on pan and leaving or magnet drain plug thanks man you guys saved me bucks could not for the life of me find my machine with same problem anywhere ran across the video

G’day Eddy. Good to see no further damage than the bolts.
Cheers

Hey Peter, yes it was very lucky. Thanks for dropping by.
All the best!
Eddie
ALRIGHT SUP EDDIE !I Got Your stickers on my tool boxes thanks bro !!!
Awesome, send me a pic if you can. I would like to share them in a future video.
All the best!
Wow! Yeah, super lucky that didn't really cause some damage. Great fix man 😁! Looks like puppers was out doing some digging of his own lol. Cheers 👍😊👍
Hey man, thanks for stopping by. Did you get the stickers yet?

@@Just1GuyMetalworks no worries. Has been a pretty crap year. Things are looking up though, maybe.
Hi Eddie,
It looks like you got off quite lightly and more damage did not occur... Good to see it running again...
Take care
Paul,,
Quite lightly indeed. I have a video coming up showing your stickers. Thanks for watching, Paul!
Thanks for saving me a trip to the shop!
Glad it helped!

Can you out the link as to where you got those three bolts, same thing happened to me but I don’t want to get the wrong bolts
Check your specific model on the Polaris site but these are the bolts we used. amzn.to/3XpxCdc
I notice on the sprague clutch the bearings came out of the metal housing with three holes. I was able to put it back in. Is that correct ?
@@theeddies thanks man. You’re right.
@@423TENNESSEBOY Glad it helped. All the best!
Eddie
@@423TENNESSEBOY Did you actually get my original reply about rotation etc? The comment seems to have disappeared.
I always knew you had a couple of screws lose. Didn't know Loctite would be the answer. :)
It is my dads. He is the one with the screws lose. With me, my nuts are always in a bind. Loctite is the opposite of what I need, lol.

Honestly, they build these engines like they are just disposable.
Did any codes come up?
Not that I remember but it was my fathers machine.
Thank you for this video
My 2018 xp4 turbo will spin the starter but will not crank the motor it sounds horrible.
I am going to try this!
Thanks,

@@theeddies question for you did you have your starter spin and have a really high pitch whining noise with know engine engagement?
@@MrShimo91 Did not have the high pitch whine. Starter just spun and sounded normally as a starter would that is not connected to anything.
@@MrShimo91 did yours do this? How did you fix this issue?
@@ryannewillis338 i replaced the one way bearing as it failed and would not catch.
