went to the chic chocs in canada last weekend , due to the lack of snow here in maine, went out first day doing some tree riding and on the trail ride back to the place we were staying sled lost all power... started it up went 20 ft and died, started it up again and went 10 ft then died, and this got progressively worse. As soon as touched the throttle it would die.. ended up being towed the last 30 min (which sucked bc the pro throws some serious chunks). checked a few things that people thought it could be... nothing no luck... it would idle but wouldn't move, also headlight wouldn't work. dropped it off at the dealer sunday night and they had it going monday am... turns out the ecu was partially unplugged and the plug inside the headlight had come undone. still seems a little weird that was the problem just because of the way it acted.. not sure if anyone has any similar issue

How was the riding there?
good snow up there.. trail into the mountains was brutal... but a fun time for sure
The progressively worse sounds just like a voltage regulator.
But I suppose a loose connection getting looser could do it too.

ya spoke to the dealer that night and the voltage meter was reading 13.5... just very weird the way it all happened
So in no way is this a dead axys.... but the title will translate to much worse I'm sure
I was up there as well last week. YOu stay at the Den? We had a room in the next town over. Rode for 3 days. The 3 miles or so of the road going in was pure hell on a Mtn sled. Wholly fuc! But the snow in the hills was really good. Im headed back up once in march and early april. Looks like Maine is toast this year. Glad they got the sled figured out.
Were heading that way in the middle of March as well. Got 3 days riding then doing a clinic with Dan Adams on the 4th day.
headed back to more 3 days ride in March and April. Snow is pretty good for us Maine guys! Had a really good time and the terrain was awesome You will have a good time.
we went with adventure chic chocs.. good guys, great time... with the weather forecast looks like another trip will have to happen sooner than later
Same place we are going. We are a group of 4 and will have a place to ourselves and have our own riding group. If we have a good time it might become a yearly thing.
the polaris start if you unplug the hood connector, have been like this since i can remember
even with the key unplugged

Am I the only one who finds it funny that this poor guy wrote a post looking for sympathy on a "Dead Axys," and all anyone cares about is the snow conditions in BC?
just looking to see if anyone else has had similar a issue, no sympathy needed... chic chocs are also in Quebec, not BC

I apologize for getting the thread off track. Saw the post on the chic chocs and I had just left there. Hope you have had luck on getting your sled back going.
