Well we got one more ride in. The trails were the best they have been all year. Little dirty and icy in the corners but no traffic and groomed trails all day. Heading home my sled just quit like i hit the kill switch and it was smoking like mad from under the engine. LIft the hood and find my harness melted from the coil all the way to the harness. So i undo the harness to find the ground melted and melted into the other wires causing the sled to shut down. Seperated the wires, taped them up and the sled fired right up. Everything worked perfect. Lights, warmers, all three cylinders, perfect?????? Got home pulled it all apart and it melted all the way up to the common ground at the harness. THe coils apear to be fine as the sled ran great. Any ideas what happened??? A rub through that shorted out?? Looking for any help on why this happened. I will have to go through each wire and cut, splice, and cover. Now i need a harness from the coils to the harness. Here are some pic's of my meltdown. You can see the bare ground.
