Fan problem with my 700 Polaris sportsman

Samson14 · 08-12-2009, 09:34 PM

Any info would be helpful.
My fan will just come on for no reason, if its sitting in my garage and has not run for a week it will just come on and the crazy thing is, is that it does it with the key out and the kill switch off.
I obviously know its an electrical problem but if the kill switch is off where is it getting the power from, has anyone heard of this before or or know of someone this has happened to. Iwas originally thinking sensor but if it comes on with the key out and kill switch off it must be some sort of electrical short??

Have you had any luck with your problem, just had the same thing happen with my wife's sportsman, key off, kill swith off, but the fan comes on, almost like having a ghost in the garage.
