    I'm not a mechanic but I do all my own work, learned most of what I know from my father and the rest from my time in the garage. I took the side cover off and inspected the belt... everything looked fine, just a lot bigger than the CVT on my 50cc scooter, lol. Your video helped me tremendously, I couldn't figure the blinking light thing out to save my butt. Thanks for the Vid brother... worked like a charm 👍👍

    I know it's been 10 years since you posted this video about the Kawasaki prairie 360, but I was wondering if you knew how to reset the 4x4 light it is flashing. I appreciate any help, you make great videos, thank you.

    • @400EX99N
      @400EX99N  3 роки тому

      4X4 Light
      If something wrong, it will flash. If you are engaged in 4x4, it will stay on. Basically there are 3 types of failure modes when 4x4 is "flashing". You need to measure the flashing time interval (1, 2 or 4 seconds). For example, how much time it would make a complete flashing cycle 2WD->4WD->2WD.
      In any case, you should get a factory service manual and start reading if you want to do the work by yourself. If not, leave it to a competent dealer mechanic.

    @JBodine67 i would do a valve adjustment,and i would not play with the air screw.i think the valves are most of your problem.if its still a little hard to start after you adjust the valves you can go i size bigger on your pilot jet or run i size hotter plug in the winter. hope it helps

    the actuator should make some kind of noise, if yours doesn't check you connectors that they are plugged is all the way. also check the fuse. in my services book 6 and 6 means memory reading failure which means may be a broken led light. also try resetting the lite manually by taking the belt cover off and flipping the switch. hope this helps ya

    Polaris makes good quads, they do have some issues as other brand do.the only thing I don't like about Polaris is there 4wd system, they use a plastic roller cage in the front diff. I have replaced a few of them. but they were older ones iam not quite sure about the newer ones they may have changed that now. try talking to people who have them and find out how they like them. I hope this helps

    If there truely is a problem with the belt how can you know? Where is the belt located & how often does it need to be replaced?

    • @400EX99N
      @400EX99N  10 років тому

      yes you would know. your quad would not run to good like it wouldn't get up to speed, the quad wouldn't stat moving until 1/2 throttle. the belt is under that black cover on the right side.the belt needs replacing when it get beyond the specs for your quad. you should check your belt at least once a year or if you ride a lot twice a year

    Hi Sir:I've got a 2010 Kawasaki Kvf 360 4x4...The belt reset worked fine.That was a few months ago.
    I have a question regarding the 4x4 light blinking on and off in long intervals,like about 5 seconds apart...I thought it might be the actuator acting-up,because it sounds funny whe it resets and it is hard to get from hi to neutral when the light is blinking.
    Maybe you would know about this machine?I need to get a repair manual.The dealer here is a goof.Do you have some ideas?...Thanks.

  • @dudley237

    Hi 400ex...well I checked all connections and they are good.I read some of the repair manual and I have to say that some of it was way over my head.Wiring diagrams and minute details,man,what ever happened to a simple set-up?Why would they build a bike with so much electrical components?IAnyway,I had the clutches cleaned and a new belt installed.
    Sometimes the engine brake actuator acts up and the 4x4 light will blink.I turn the key off,and it seems to reset itself...New actuator maybe?..thanks

  • @JBodine67
    @JBodine67 12 років тому

    thanks for the prompt reply.
    Do you mean to check all plugs and connections?I will check them all.

  • @DeffHi

    Just wondering. Is it possible to do this proceedure to re-set the clock to zero before the belt light is triggered? If you were headed out for the day, it would be nice to know that you wouldn't have to deal with limp mode 20 miles back in the bush.

  • @JBodine67
    @JBodine67 12 років тому

    hey man my belt actuator is acting bad. I think its finally gone it has 9400kms on it. We checked the conections and all that there all good. But when you turn the key on it doesnt buzz it just goes zip short and the light is still blinking before you even start it. I think it is time for a new one. Are they hard to install? does it just sit on top on the belt or before u put it on do you have to reset anything? Thanks for your time and talk to you soon.

    @400EX99N The only time the Belt light comes on is when the clutch does not want to disengage. This only happens intermittently which has the added effect that I have a hard time trying to shift gears when stopped. Is there a simple fix for this? When this happens when I'm at a stop, I have to add gas and break at the same time so the motor does not stall.
