looking for some insight or previous posts to troubleshoot my issue.
They ATV is a 2002 rubicon 500 with just under 600 miles on it. i spent the weekend riding and put on about 75 miles without one issue. I came home, unloaded the four wheeler and gave my son a few laps around the yard. I pulled it into the back to wash it down with a hose(not pressure washer). After drying it off i started and noticed a few things.
1- D1/D2/ESP all flash and it will not display the gear position or drive mode. L D N R or gears 1-5.
2- It will move forward but feels as though you are trying to start out in 4th gear as the motor seems very loaded and slow to start moving.
3- Trying to move in reverse and the motor will pop, spit and sputter.
It WAS NOT/HAS not been in any deep water and as i said ran perfect up until i hosed it down. I am wondering if it is possible something got wet during the washing process?
any input would be appreciated.
-Thanks
