Hey guys,

anyone else having issues with the gauge on the 850’s? I can hardly read the fuel level when riding as it appears I have moisture or something in the screen. Gets way worse when the sledis being used. Sleds 2 weeks old..

I hope this is one thing BRP changes soon. That display sucks. It is usually buried in snow though.

I agree the display isn’t the best. I hope they come out with a coloured version that is compatible with the older displays. I don’t mind the display size, I just wish it was coloured and easier to read in the sun.

My gauge has something wrong with it. After riding in a day of pow and restarting the next day, the "Good Key" and "Warm Up" scroll across the screen. The fuel and/or temp icons are blank. It can idle for quite awhile and they won't come on. If I flick the hand/thumb warmer switch a couple of time, the engine temp and fuel will come on eventually.

Another problem is the kill switch. It can freeze down and won't pull up so that the sled can start. This also happens after riding powder.

When starting up to unload off truck if I don't wait for the good key message to go away before engaging reverse it doesnt allways go into reverse or it does without the beeper
