TYPICAL
Some Liquid-Cooled Models
On these models tether cut out switch
is part of tether cut out system. This
system serves 3 functions. It shuts
off engine preventing snowmobile to
runaway if the operator falls off the
vehicle accidently.
Through the D.E.S.S.
TM
(Digitally En-
coded Security System), it acts as a
lock by preventing unauthorized use of
your snowmobile thus deterring theft.
Finally, it prevents unintentional elec-
tric starter operation in vehicles so
equipped by disabling the electric
starter and ignition circuits in the
MPEM or ECU.
DESS (Digitally Encoded
Security System) Description
This system is digitally encoded to pro-
vide you and your snowmobile with
the equivalent security as a conven-
tional lock key.
The tether cord cap provided with
your snowmobile contains an elec-
tronic chip in which a unique digital
code is permanently memorized. Your
authorized Lynx dealer programs this
key code in the MPEM or ECU of your
snowmobile to allow engine opera-
tion above 3000 RPM if and only if
this unique code has been read after
engine starting.
If a tether cord cap with different code
is installed, the engine will start but
cannot reach drive pulley engagement
speed to move vehicle.
Additional Tether Cord Caps
The MPEM/ECU of your snowmobile
can be programmed by your autho-
rized Lynx dealer to accept 8 different
key codes (tether cord caps).
DESS Pilot Lamp Codes
DESS pilot lamp blinking slowly (one
time per 1,5 second) means that a bad
connection has been detected. Vehi-
cle can not be driven.
