When does the hot check engine light come on?
I put about 150 miles on the bike ( over a couple weeks) and the HOT/CHECK ENGINE light started flashing after a 40 mile ride and now as soon as the key is turned on even when the bike is cold.
Why does my check engine light not flash?
Loose Gas Cap. A gas cap that isn’t twisted on tight enough may cause the check engine light to illuminate, but it won’t flash. Try tightening the gas cap and watch the light. In many cases, it will turn off because the problem has been corrected.
Why does my Speedo and hot light keep flashing?
If you unplug the cooling fan this will happen, so if there’s something wrong with it it will let know you buy flashing the speedo & hot light. The fan should come on as soon as the lights on but since its not it would point to the fan itself (or circuit). Could be other things but from what you describe it may be the fan.
Why does my Polaris ATV keep flashing Hot?
So far, I replaced the all the gaskets in the top end of engine, the thermostat is removed, Brand New ECM, and tested the temp sensor (seems to be fine but don’t know what proper reading should be). The Rad is full of new fluid and burped. The rad is free of mud and debris ( and power tested it with leads from battery and works).

What to do when engine hot light flashes?
Stick the funnel into the top of the radiator of a cold machine. Make sure the overflow tank is topped off, as well as the radiator. When the thermostat kicks on, if there is any air in the system, it will get burped out the funnel, and you can add more coolant.
Why does my check engine light keep flashing?
Also make your atv is putting out the volts. M 08 did the same thing and it was the voltage rectifier The mystery is solved for my flashing hot instrument panel. It was the ecm but when I put in the new one, I must have knocked one of the pin connectors loose in the plug. It was causing the light to flash as the fan was not getting power I guess.
