Engine light on!!

[Big D rmk700]

A buddy's 11 800 engine light came on is there any way to check the codes without taking it to the dealer?
Thanks

engine light on

squeeze the brake leaver and push the set button a few times. The engine has to be running.

Mine is doing the same thing, do you keep pressing it till something comes across screen? Or a certain number of times?

Push it till it tells you what code is up. I thought it was the menu button tho? Try both. Set the break. And start the sled and start pushing buttons.

See attached owner manual PDF file.
Its for a 2011, but I think for this info it'll work the same.

See page 39 of the manual, which is actually page 43 of the PDF.

Instrument Cluster
Rider Information Center
Diagnostic Display Mode
The diagnostic display mode is for informational purposes only. Please
see your POLARIS dealer for all major repairs.
The diagnostic mode is accessible only when the check engine warning
indicator is illuminated anda diagnostic code is active.
Do not stop the engine if you wantto view the active code (failure
code). Active codes cannot be retrieved if power is interrupted to the
instrument cluster. The codes will become inactive codes if power is
interrupted. Inactive codes are stored in the history of the unit. Please
see your POLARIS dealer toretrieve inactive codes.
Use the following procedure to view active codes.
1. Do not stop the engine.
2. With the brake engaged, press and release the SELECT button or
SET switch to toggle to the diagnostic display mode. When a code
is active, the diagnostic display mode will appear immediately fol-lowing the engine hour display.
TIP:When the diagnostic mode is displayed, the check engine warning indicator
will begin to flash.
3. A set of two numbers will appear in the display.
• The 2-6 digit suspect parameter number (SPN) in the information display
area indicates which component is generating the fault code.
• The 1-2 digit failure mode indicator (FMI) number in the odometer area
indicates the fault mode, such as open or short circuit.
4. More than one fault may be active. Press and hold the MODE but-ton or MODE switch for two seconds to toggle to the next active
code. Repeat until all codes are retrieved.
5. See page 40 for code definitions and failure descriptions.

This is the scientific method!
