That sucks and very confusing since the ECU is powered directly off its separate isolated circuit on the stator, and you already changed a stator.

So just a thought based on that, try unplugging just the ignition switch and run the machine. See if the voltage improves. They've been known to corrode internally and cause weird issues for others

There is no modification to the new regulator necessary. I dug out the installation paperwork that came with the regulator and it clearly states that the regulator brown wire can be ignored in all cases. The ground wire on that aluminum plate should be connected directly to the regulator...

I never messed with the one on my 02 edge so they must've switched sides at some point

Ok, so they made a common regulator at some point for the older machines, I ran into this on my 00 xc700 when that blew. You just plug the yellow male side of that regulator connector back into one of the yellows on that plug. Kinda clunky but it is what it is. That being said, with it unplugged...

Take a picture of what you have going on, that sled originally had a single wire regulator according to the parts diagrams. Is there a single yellow wire hanging out somewhere near the right footwell with nothing attached?

I would take a closer look at the ignition still since its all wired in parallel with the other safety devices. You already said the slap switch works so its not a problem at the ECU

Wrong regulator, there are 2 different ones depending on if you have electric start. The one you describe having is for the pull start sleds.

I wouldn't get too deep before double checking the key switch itself. After years of getting water in them, they are known to have problems and do weird things.

The part I'm pointing at is an inline metal filter in the assembly, most likely plugged. SPI makes an aftermarket version of this.

By pickup, I mean the assembly that sucks the gas from the bottom of the tank, not the fuel pump itself. See the arrow below.

The recall question was aimed at Skatike27, only the '13 & '14 pro-ride sleds were part of the recall for some reason. In your case, I'd question the fuel pickup still, there's an inline filter on those that could be getting plugged. Sounds like the pump solved a few voltage issues on that post...

That sounds high. Has the fuel pickup in the tank ever been replaced? They get plugged over time and need to be replaced, usually you can hear the pump whining when this happens..

Has the recall work been done on the 2013? Those year sleds got a whole new fuel pump assembly as part of the recall.

I was talking on the wiring harness side.....

The stator & VR plugs all look ok? Not even slightly deformed? I know people have had them get too hot and melt in the past.

Yeah my next comment was going to be I think you have a wiring gremlin somewhere in the harness, I was hoping the ground continuity check of the stator harness was going to fail and make it easy but the fact it came back to life after you screwed around with the connections for a while is...

Was this with the new capacitor you bought or the original? Also was that stator you bought Polairs OEM or aftermarket?

Check the resistance of both those stator circuits, per the manual the Z circuit to the VR has the higher resistance value 0.2 Ohms ( more coils). They unfortunately didn't give a good way to check the VR itself, the AXYS manual has diode checks you can perform on that VR but I havent seen it...

Well that kind of rules that out, thats what I primarily run too, but still worth checking the bowls just in case.
