Dammit. There are several others with the second set going out. Not that it helps.
Name the "several others" first time I've heard that.
Id know that names off hand. I've seen 2 besides his for sure. One on FB just picked his up from second repair and I've ran across another.
I put about as much faith in Facebook as Obama supporting the military.
Lol yeah one of them on FB is accually on this forum and I thought I seen hem report it here as well.
This is the first I've heard of a "repeat" failure when clutches were replaced. The only other "second" failure was when they only reprogrammed the clutch the first time, then it totally failed a little later.
The 1st guy I seen with the 2nd clutch concerns was @mikegzales[/USER] on page 53. What is going on with your second clutch replacement? Mine starting acting up again last night. This time I know when it happened.
Well Joe... the last time my clutches went out I had family members out with me and was having way to much fun and don't know what happened or when it happened. I just knew on my way back home things were not right. So took it to the dealer and a bunch of diagnosing and testing for 2 months they said they replaced both of my clutches and showed me a burnt up clutch drum.
Only think I would Sugguest is there is a section in the manual that tells you how to shift the machine with a wrench at the transmission. Make the shift solonoid is not working. The normal clutch issues that Everyone has had never has affected full movement. There is the ground issues that do although. There are two grounds on the engine. That I would remove clean and put back on also. I will post pic of ground location.
Will I have no clue what happened... but when my clutch was acting up I drove it back to my trailer roughly 5 miles with my SXS delayed engagement on taking off, 3nd, and 5th gear all the way back. the next day I took it off my trailer in reverse and it was delayed engagement coming off the trailer. I washed it off took it for a ride and drive normal. Woke up this morning took it for about 20 mile ride seems to be ok.
I had the exact same thing happen to me. Slipped for day and a half. About 40-50 miles of riding bring it home. I noticed as soon as I backed it off trailer wasn't slipping anymore. It slipped from 50 to 100 miles I'm at 300 now hasn't slipped since. I seem to think its electrical possibly a ground causing the slipping and leading to burnt clutch. If it was mechanical why would it just stop. When I had the problems I put Elec grease on all my connections and both engine grounds.
It is possible he may have bent the shifting fork(s) and it is not engaging into H, L, or R, thus it is essentially jammed in N. I had bent mine where it would not go into Low Range but would still go in High, it was repaired with the clutches.
Well in my particular case I had bent my tie rod a little then when trying to nurse it back to camp finished bending it into a 45 degree angle on a 40% incline, I had just started down the 1000' hill and within the first 30 feet hit a rut & rock in an unavoidable spot. The machine was pointing downhill with pressure on the parking pawl and in the process of two other P1K's trying to get me back up that 30 ft. I had no choice but to shift from L to R and something must have gotten tweaked due to the pressure on the shifting fork. Mind you this was a very peculiar situation and no one would normally stop on that type of incline but there was no way of getting down those switchbacks with one wheel pointing off full lock in one direction or the other while one was straight. This too was in snow and ice at the end of Jan which did not help matters at all. It was just one of those things that happens when riding in the mountains.
