- With all the talk on social media about this wire harness rubbing through I thought I should check mine. Sure enough mine was starting to wear also. I am fortunate I found it when I did. Thank you to everyone that posts these type of issues. It helps us all. I used a 3/4" I.D. rubber hose to protect it. You could use a 1" also. I think a 1"I.D. would be better. Hope you like the video and it helps some of you out. If you like this video click like and please subscribe to my channel for more helpful tips and outdoors activities.
Thank you. I will look at mine today. This sort of video is what makes the internet great. Thanks for taking the time to record it.
Great advice. I will look into fixing mine. Thank you
Good work and great advice. I’m looking at mine real soon.
I checked mine. 2019 with 1440 miles and the harness was worn thru and a red wire showing. Got it just in time. Thank You
Went to Ace and got a piece of hose and put over it. May want to tape first. Used another piece and zipped the problem hose off of the harness.
Great to hear.
Thanks for the video, I’ll be doing this to both of mine right away
Nice, thank you.
Would appreciate any suggestions. 2012 Polaris 800 Razor EFI hesitates at 45-50 mph. 45 is about 6350rpm. Not really a sputter or cough. Repairman just cleaned throttle body and fuel injectors and said idle air circuit was partially open causing a misfire at that speed. None of the work performed solved the issue. One person suggested the primary and secondary cluthes might be fighting each other. Need to get it fixed pretty quick so we can sell it and move, but I want it to be right. I should also mention that it has full power no issues 0-45. No codes, no engine light. Always at that speed only.Thanks folks. Appreciate anything.
Your primary weights in your primary clutch could be worn or your sleeves on your clutches could be worn. Take your belt cover off and inspect your belt and clutches. That's where I would start. A bright light and a tool mirror is essential for proper inspection. Good luck.
@@blueberryridgeoutdoors Thank you. I'll let you know what I find out.
Sounds good.
@@blueberryridgeoutdoors Thank You for your response. I have some new information on the 2012 Polaris 800 Razor having issues at 45mph.
I was asked if it could go faster than 45mph. Just took it for another test. As usual it hesitates at 45mph. I pushed it on a longer stretch and when it gets to 50mph it stops hesitating. When I get to 55mph it hesitates again. Top speed is 60 mph at a maximum of 6500 rpm.
To obtain codes, one video suggested turning the key off and on 3 times and it will show a code. Didn’t see anything pop up when I tried it. I don’t know if this 800 has the ability to display any codes?
I’d like to include some responses from folks kind enough to offer suggestions to see if it triggers any other ideas pointing to one thing.
The spark plugs were replaced about 1.5 years ago. They were examined recently and found to be good. I still might replace them as that’s a cheaper item. I suppose it could be a bad spark plug wire.. or coil wire. Your thoughts?
Suggestions: fuel pressure check, sounds like fuel pump, spray water on spark plug wires and coil wire, Fuel stabilizer, Belt might be slipping, inspect clutches and belts, don’t think its clutch related, sounds like clutches sticking, check belt for damage, weights in primary clutch are too light, was IAC mechanically stuck open or electrically being opened.
Thanks again. I’m hoping this new information might directly point to something that I will try and tackle on my own. Taking it in is a last resort for me.
I promise, to get back to you once I find the issue!
Thank you kindly. Very much appreciated.

@@blueberryridgeoutdoors I finally have the answers on the 2012 800 Razor issues. Thank you for your response!
Summary for 2012 Razor 800:
• Fuel pressure was a consistent 44PSI which is in spec. Previously verified during last repairs.
• Spark Plugs were checked during previous repairs and color was a light brown
(NGK BKR7E) Plugs replaced in previous repairs Jan. 2023
• TPS set at .730 per factory spec. using TPS TOOL brand meter (specified range is .720-.740 TPS voltage setting controls idle and start up.
• Overall TPS voltage affects WOT, but that would be bad TPS unit.
• IAC solenoid was partially open because of excessive dirt build up in throttle body.
• Injectors were checked and cleaned because fuel goes bad much faster in the summer heat of the desert.
• Mass Air Flow sensor was cleaned with MAF sensor cleaner because of dirt and oil build up
• UNI brand Air Filter cleaned and treated and intake tract cleaned
Diagnosis:
• During diagnosis test drive the operators RPM’s were watched closely.
• During wide open throttle pass on pavement, engine was at 6400 rpm at 45mph.
• 6400rpm is on the rev limiter and that’s the surging feeling. Had to feather the throttle lightly to work towards 50mph and hit 6400 rpm again.
Definitely Clutch related (clutches were not serviced in Jan of 2023, only on new belt).
CLUTCH INSPECTION ON MACHINE:
Secondary clutch was difficult to open for belt removal.
Primary Clutch: Needed partial rebuild
• Installed new OEM sliders
• Rollers in the spider were good
• Installed new OEM 2- way bearing
• Installed new OEM 23-62 weights (removed 23-58 weights)
• Installed new OEM shoulder bolts for the weights
Secondary Clutch: Tear Down
• Internal Rollers in excellent shape
• Excessive dirt and debris in bushing area of moveable sheave resulted in hard to open during belt change, also translates to poor operating results
• Replaced Belt Drive
• After Clutch servicing engine holds at 6150 rpm during wide open. Wide open throttle RPM/MPH test
No issue getting to 55mph, did not try for higher MPH as clutches now hold correct RPM
Might want to rotate that first zip tie down so it doesn't rub the hose. Did that exact "fix" last night.
I drove my 2016 polaris crew at 45mph and unbuckled the drivers seat belt. After a minute it made a horrible noise and seemed to lock up the transmission. What is wrong?
They commonly wear under the zip ties too check around your factory zip ties they can be too tight and wear into the wires
Tks for the info. Where are you located? Do you take in work? Tks
I'm located in central Wisconsin. I only work on my own stuff and my friends stuff. Where are you from?
@ located in SE Alabama. Like your channel. Tks for sharing.
Great tip !
Great video, thanks! Is this for all Rangers or just the 1000's?
Heavy on the urgent, my 2021 got to the 02 sensor wires down to a couple strands,
just do a zip tie weave. cost 3 cents takes 2 min. wires don't touch reduces vibration on hoses and wires.
Thank you
Glad it helped.
Unfortunately I have a 2021 northstar 4 door that I found rubbed thru at 3k miles melted about inches of 02 sensor wires that I surgically repaired because the dealer is talking complete harness warranty repair 02 sensor wires are wrapped and insulated in foil also so I duplicated the patch best I could, then proceeded to shrink wrap tape and wrap with heater hose, this is gonna be a real mess in the near future

Polaris has a safety device that restricts the speed (usually to under 15 mph) when the drivers seat belt it not buckled.
Did it do any damage to your machine?
How do you like your ranger?
I like it. We just went to a RZR PRO XP for ride comfort, but miss the full cab.
