I have replaced all the relays and checked 2 amp fuses. I have verified my headlight works on another sled. I am currently not getting the full dc chassis power (14.5v?). I’ve heard maybe a magneto stator coil? What could be the issue?
No headlight or handwarmers help!

sounds easy but have you checked the connections in the harness bag? my hand warmers were so corroded i was surprised they carried any current.

I have heard of several others having this issue, ,most were just a connector that wasn't fully snapped in. On one of my sleds I had no hand warmers and only low beams worked, the dealer never could find the exact problem but they finally just replaced the main wiring harness under warranty and everything worked good after that.

Same problem on my 16, connector in bag was melted.
Which bag are you guys refer to? The one under the steering? Above the clutch?
The one under the steering near the spark plugs
I do not get +14v on the dc chassis power plug. What would cause this??
Clean and wire brush grounds at bumper
Check stator connector closely
Check connectors and connections in the bag under the bars closely. Try disconnecting connectors one at a time with sled running to see if there’s a change (short to ground)
Check headlight and grip heater connectors at switches
Check each leg of voltage regulator.
Ohm test stator.

I had to look twice . Yes that's it . I've seen that same pic four times now
that's what my stator connector by the clutch looked like on my '09. it stopped hitting top rpm then i noticed the wires were melted.
My 16 had same issues with hand warmers not working and headlight flickering and eventually didn't work. Dealer replaced voltage regulator under warranty, haven't had a problem since.
