2007 600ho no instruments,headlight dim. HELP

[Dans2005600rmk]

Ok, my idiot dealer has had this sled for 8 months. Starts and runs fine. After he rebuilt the carbs the headlight is dim and no read out on the instrument panel. He has replaced the voltage regulator, magneto and screwed around with nothing fixed. Now he wants to replace the entire wiring harness. What should I do? This is the local Polaris dealer and he has 10 years experience. You can call me at 970-773-1396 if I need to chat. I'm also being expected to pay for the parts and labor that didn't fix it. Very frustrated

Please any ideas will be appreciated

Try unplugging your grip heaters, brake light, couple other things I forgot. I believe that one had a recall on the vr, hopefully got the updated version. Probably has a live wire grounding out somewhere, trace every single wire make sure no chaffing. If that doesn't work, then it's probably the stator.

Good idea. The stator was replaced with no improvement. Unplugging one item at a time is a great idea

After the dealer replaced all the wrong parts and 8 months of sitting, he found a shunted bare wire behind the carbs he caused when rebuilding the carbs, then charged me for all parts. I settled on dealer cost and no additional labor

Thanks for the update. I figured you'd eventually find a bare wire somewhere.
