rode 350 miles this past weekend with 5 Yamaha sleds with not one breakdown. Last night we rode my 600 redhead triple started flashing the temp light in a 1-3 code. One long with 3 shorts. I cant seem to find what this code means. I found codes for an srx on this site and it says open temp sensor? Is it the same for the 600 venture????
 

so this means the temp sensor went out?? I assume it is replaceable. It it the thing on top of the head with the wires to it? Is this a common thing? I have three other triple redheads and have never had any issues for years of riding??
 
The sensor cant really break. I would follow the wires from that head temp sensor, back to where it enters the harness, and make sure there are no bad spots on the wire.
 
I uploaded a few photos from st germain last weekend Its like a magic trick to get photos to load on this site. We were in st Germain Wisconsin and they had about 4 feet of snow and then we got another 8 inches the first day. Ran a venture 600, venture 700, vmax er 600, a 1993 Exciter 2, and a 2005 RX warrior. I only own yamahas sleds.

Looks like a good time !

Bottom left pic of the silver Venture, if two people are on that sled on a regular basis, I would stiffen up the rear shock spring setting, as Im sure the ride isn't very nice when fully bottomed out all the time.
 
you know I was thinking that. That's my wife and I and it seemed a bit low Shes 140 and IM 230 didn't know if that was too much for it or not. I will look at that spring adjustment when I get the out of the trailer.
 
Your backs will thank you !

The rule of thumb is, When you are both on it, you should shoot for even distance on the white plastic washers top and bottom on the transfer rods.
 
i prefer it set so that it comes about 1/3 from the top of its travel on the transfer rods as when they load up with snow and ice they only get heaver.
