I've had some possible electrical issues with my 2010 can am renegade xxc right from the start.
It started with not always starting, having to turn the key back and forth from lights to full on a time or two before she'd fire up.
Then once on a rally, it wouldn't start and none of the electrical would turn off, even without the key in it. I just washed it good that time and it was fine.
Then this last time, after coming back from a nice wet ride, all I had to do was turn the key on and it would start on its own without pushing the green start button, then the next day would not start at all, just the check engine light comes on.
I've heard about the key being an issue but I've used die electric grease on the connections and made sure there was no water or dirt on that, as well, I've used grease on several other connections but no luck this last time getting it to start.
I contacted the dealer and was told that the BRP warranty doesn't always cover all the diagnostic fees so I'd like to figure it out myself if I could.
Any Ideas?
