P700 Transmission issue?

[Crowlan1234]

Hello all. I have a 2017 700-4 with 1200 miles on it. Recently when accelerating hard the dash display flashes from D to - for a split second, the engine revs for that split second and then it goes back to D and runs fine. No funny noises or anything else out of the ordinary. Took it to the dealer and had the 1200 mile service completed and had them investigate the issue and they couldn’t get it to act up. In addition to the normal service they adjusted the clutches. Of course once I get it home it has the same issue. Could this be an electrical issue, possibly a sensor. What do you guys think?

Could be. Try wiggling wires with the machine in gear and watch (or have someone watch) for the "D" to change to "-" momentarily. Wouldn't hurt to check grounds as well.

Also, check the shift cable adjustment.

PS: There is no "clutch adjustment" on the 700. Don't know what they were referring to.

Second the not having a clutch adjustment.

I appreciate the quick responses! Found the issue! Loose ground wire.
Interesting that there’s no clutch adjustment. I have two dealer options nearby. I’ll try the other one in the future.
