09 600 rmk shift gauges flash

[SaskRMK]

Trying to pinpoint this to a VR or a stator. Both have never been replaced. Upon startup the gauge cluster constantly flashes and I have had some performance issues. Everything else on the sled has been replaced over the past 3 seasons including a top end last season. What does this sound like to you guys? Can anyone confirm proper trouble shooting to confirm my issue?

Thanks

I had the same problem. Fixed by checking and water proofing of hood electrical connector in front bumper area, and changing low starter battery.

Thanks for the reply but I only have pull start, I will hit the electrical pins with some di electric grease but I am %98 sure this is not the issue. The shift electrical system is different and i need to find out how to test both components to eliminate the possibility.

looks like its bad chassis power relay or bad ground. Napa part AR274 - relay you're looking for. Shouldn't be more than 20 buck.
