Polaris "900 Fusion" "900 RMK" and "900 Switchback" Snowmobiles

Published December 3, 2024 · Recall initiated: March 14, 2005

What's the hazard

The snowmobile wiring harness may be routed in a way that could disconnect the engine stop switch and the throttle safety switch connector. If this connector becomes unplugged, the engine stop and the throttle safety switches will no longer function. This could pose a possible crash hazard. However, the keyed ignition switch will continue to function and will shut down the vehicle when the key is in the OFF position. The thumb warmer and right-hand warmer could also become unplugged under these harness-routing conditions.

What to do

Free repair. Contact your Polaris dealer to schedule an appointment to install a jumper wire and secure existing wiring harness. Polaris has notified consumers directly about this recall.
