I have a 2014 xm with only 300km all stock no can . Yesterday it would go into limp mode when I let off the throttle engine light on and check engine message across the dash. Stop the engine ,restart and all would be fine sometimes for 5min one time it was good for 3hrs then acted up 3 times realy quickly, always when I let the throttle off.
Help please 2014 xm

Did you check your exhaust propes? Have heard that can cause trouble if they back out .

Yuppers on the exhaust probes. Check them first.
Check to ensure the wiring harness is on the air tube flute on left hand upper sideis on and fully seated.
Then check to ensure the small clear tube is on the small nipple on the upper rh side.

I checked all thoes things all were ok took it to the dealer and they said a reprogram will fix it. I thought the 2014s had the up dated program from 2013. Iam not realy sure about all this reprogram stuff. Any one else getting a 2014 reprogramed?

The only program for the 14's is for sensitive exhaust probes for guys with cans.

dealer has had it for two days still no answer. I want to sled on friday and still no sled. I bought an new sled so I wouldn't have this problem. Iam thinking the old m8 is looking pretty good right now.

Had the exact same thing. The codes that came up at the dealer was a mag short to ground. They replaced the coil and I got them to put new in plugs in also. Also found a kink in the 1/4" air hose from the airbox to the computer. This was making it run rough altitude we think.

Hey guys there have been a couple units out there that are getting moisture in the plug from the coil to the ECU. (JB1 plug)It will short out killing the coil. Tell your dealer to make sure that plug is dry and the rubber weather seal is in good condition before sending back out or it will do it again. They feel it is an assembly problem from the factory on a few units.
What program would this be??
Ever since I got my sled back from Martin's,(MBRP can) it has been worse, the Muffler check engine warning goes on, and the odd time it sputters when full out... even on the trail.

BRP came out with a flash for guys throwing muffler codes. The probe may not be sitting in the can at the proper level which creates false readings to the ECU and throws a code and a light.
That's what I thought. The reason I am asking, is that it's funny that it suddenly does it after I had it at the dealer 2 weeks ago and nothing before....

Number 1 rule in snowmobiling. If the sled works great don't touch it even if someone tells you this flash will make it better. Lol.
