DIAGNOSTIC MODE
NOTE: This gauge features auto shut--off protection
if the voltage on the DC bus is excessive. This is
usually the result of an open battery condition, and the
gauge is designed to survive such an event.
NOTE: If the gauge will not indicate what gear it is in
and will not allow AWD operation, AWD can still be
enabled by holding in the mode/override button.
To enter the diagnostics mode:
1. Turn the key switch off and wait 10 seconds.
2. Set the park brake and shift the transmission to
neutral.
3. Hold the mode/reverse override button as you
turn the key switch on.
4. Release the switch as soon as the display is
activated.
Use the mode/reverse override button to toggle
through the diagnostic screens.
NOTE: The initial screen display refers to the
software version installed on your ATV. This
information is only displayed briefly.
Screen 1: The first screen indicates battery voltage.
