Will this kit work properly on a Polaris Ranger? If the start battery dies, will the second battery automatically act as the start battery?

It depends on how you wire this in. The unit effectively isolates the two batteries well, but you have to set it up so the start battery is not drained by any other circuits in the car. What that amounts to is that the only thing on the starter circuit is the starter battery with the starter. The other battery runs all the accesories, ignition, etc. If you have the starter battery running everything as well as the starter and you drain it, the auxillary battery is still isolated, that is what the unit does, it isolates the second battery from a drain situation. The only way to make it function in the manner you want as a starter battery is if you actually jump the two positive posts together. Think of this unit as actually isolating the batteries completely when one (the one you set) goes below about 12.8 volts (if i remember right). As a side note to this, we used this to wire in a small battery to run the ignition and other circuits on our Factory Five GTM and isolated the starter battery because we had a circuit drain on the ignition system that we have not been able to isolate yet. The starter battery remains charged and whenever the car is running the alternator charges both batteries the way it should. However, when the auxillary battery is run down, even though the starter battery is fine, the ignition system will not turn the solenoid on to the starter. So think through that as well.

Yes. Works great in my 11' 500 sportsman HO Polaris. I would get a Battery Charger/Maintainer. I got the Schumacher XM1-5 1.5 Amp Fully Automatic Power Charger and Maintainer from Amazon. Works good so far.

You will want to check with a polaris dealer. It looks like the rear is slightly different where it mounts than the standard XP models.

when i installed my battery on my generator it started right away when i put my geius battery charger on it it said the battery was at 50% charge.a genius battery charger will charge it and keep it charged automatically

I did not use my on a Solar application it was use on an ATV and it works exactly as advertised. I can put a maintenance battery charger on the bike and when the main battery is charged it will connect the two batteries together and charge the second. i can drain the second battery and still start the machine with the main. i use a winch and aux lights on the second battery which will drain it pretty quickly however as long as the first battery is charged the UTV will charge the second.

I have never got my digital ranger to work. I bought it used on Amazon. The batteries I put in there are regular batteries. I am sorry, what are NiMH batteries and where can I buy them? I would love to have my night vision goggles work. Going to Contact in the Desert in Joshua Tree soon to look at the sky. Do you know of a repair store I can take these? Thanks

no instructions included. If you check out Ranger forums its pretty simple to do. Make sure to disconnect the negative battery cable for at least a half an hour. If your cruise control works but the buttons are just messed up, its pretty simple to unplug the buttons one at a time and plug in new buttons. that's all I have to do with mine it took me 10 minutes

I would suggest contacting warn directly. I'm sure the winch will work but you have to buy the warn mounting bracket for the Polaris. I just used my winch two weeks ago on my honda foreman to pull out a pick-up truck stuck in sand. I am amazed at what a warn winch will do.

I also have one sensor dead two years after purchase on Amazon (P409S Retrofit TPMS). I am considering getting another complete system since if one battery is gone, can the rest be far behind? Given the good performance of three systems in three of my vehicles I might spring for another complete system. Peace of mind is priceless.

Sure, that's what I use them in. Ranger scooter for a handicapped person. Needs two, but check what you have before you buy. This is a very common battery, but not all scooters use this one.

I don't know. I read the instructions and the porta jump wont help if the battery, starter or the generator is bad. it will only work if you left the lights on and the battery drained

It will, but when you buy it please say its for a 2002 Polaris Ranger 500, because the battery is under the drivers seat so we can send the correct wiring for your 500, after 2004 they changed to under the hood is the only differance! Thanks for your question and please let us know if you have any others! Thanks, Mark

I'm not sure, I do not think it will though. Go to the Polaris website to check figment.

Have had a problem with mine so checked batteries and reinstalled them. I noticed the directional arrow inside the battery pack was pointed the wrong way. The base of the battery, or negative end, should go against the spring. The arrows point to the opposite direction and it won't work this way. Now mine is working. I'm not sure yet if I have another problem not related to the batteries.

Hi - I have a 2013 Polaris Ranger Browning 4x4 edition of the 900XP. The back window DID NOT fit. Fortunately it fit my 2005 Polaris Ranger 6 wheel 500 perfectly...

I installed in a 2003 Polaris Magnum as well as in a CanAm 400. I have a winch on the Polaris and no issues. It's fits very nicely in battery tray. It should fit as well in yours, most ATV batteries are same size. So far I am happy with this product.
