    This fixed my issue perfectly! Thanks for a short, easy video to solve a problem that Polaris would have charged too much in labor for resolving!

    WOW! Thanks so much for sharing! What a time saver! I am having the same problem and I was adjusting the carburetor but that was not doing it. What a great video! I was trying to plow the snow and it kept stopping, how frustrating! I will try this! I am sure it will fix my problem!

    The contacts are designed to touch one another at idle according to the service manual (to limit RPM in the event of a broken throttle cable), but I do have the same issue at idle. I put a piece of a cable tie between the contacts to stop this rough idling and it helped. Motorcycles use two throttle cables, but Polaris chose this setup for some reason. Thanks for the video.

    From the service manual on my 2009 Sportsman 850 XP: "The Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) switch is designed to close during throttle movement in the event the throttle cable sticks or breaks. When the throttle lever is at idle position, the ETC switch contacts should be closed (touching). When the throttle lever is moved the contacts will open and allow normal operation. If the contacts remain closed or become closed during throttle movement, the ECU will limit engine RPM."

    If you pull the rubber protective covers off the 'adjuster' you will see the plastic cable adjuster and the LOCKNUT - once the adjustment is made and the locknut tightened, push the rubber protectors back covering the adjuster - a better video is kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y4Crztttqpuxkbw.html
