Ect Sensor Test; Ect Sensor Replacement - Polaris 2014 RZR XP 1000 Service Manual

ECT Sensor Test

To quickly rule out other components and wiring related
to the ECT, disconnect the harness from the ECT sensor
and start the engine. After a few seconds, the fan should
turn on and the "Check Engine" indicator should display
on the instrument cluster. This indicates all other
components are working properly.
Refer to Chapter 3 and 10 for additional ECT sensor
information. Polaris dealers can test the sensor by using
Digital Wrench® Diagnostic Software (dealer only).
