I am having problems with some sort of electrical issue with my Viper sled. When I touch the brakes the gauges go out and the sled starts to cut out. The headlight is also very dull. It runs best when on low beams however. Does anyone know if this is simply a ground? And if so perhaps where would I start to look? Any help would be greatly appreciated as we have just gotten about 2 feet of snow up here in Northern Wisconsin over the last few weeks.
 

common chaffing area is under the motor near the clutch side on the bottom....i pulled my harness all the way out, checked it all over good, and then ran some wire loom around the whole harness from end to end......rerouted it so it was nice and clean. i would ohm your stator as well just to rule that out....damn things can make some goofy stuff happen right before they go.....the 02's actually have a bad winding on the stator from the factory, something to check into
