    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

But is the diagram for the 850GT/GLT good for all 850s?
 
It should be dcv set to 20 right? On that setting my battery reads about 12.8 not 2v. Am I on wrong setting. Starting to feel pretty dumb....
I wired up polaris r/r unmounted and did phase a test with a new multimeter. Positive lead drop .37 negative lead drop reads .09

20 VDC shoudl be fine.

That is better. Did you clean the fusebox and the bullet connector between the battery and the fuse box. If you can tget teh 0.37 down to about 1/2 of that you will be good. Your voltage at 5K should rise correspondingly.
 
My bike only has a single main fuse, no fusebox. There must be something I'm not seeing, wires and connections look fine. Thanks for keeping up with my thread. Anyone have any good ideas for where to mount the polaris R/R? I've read where other guys have put it but there doesn't seem to be room on my bike for those spots. Maybe left side if I move igniter to the right side. Was even maybe thinking top of rear fender, just not sure if my seat will fit after that lol
