About ready to take to someone, shifts up but not down. Have spent hours replaced shift motor, angle sensor, switch is good, ecu good, any one have an idea? I used manual and did the 20 or so troubleshooting steps

Not a polaris guy, I have 3 ranchers this is the only one I have had problem with, I gave 500 $ for it and has 600 miles, its just been sitting for 8-10 yrs, a lady owned it and rolled it, no damage but thinking a wire is damaged somewhere, have narrowed down to electrical

Make sure your idle speed is as low as possible.
Then if that doesn't work adjust your clutch. Nut with slotted screw on left side of front crank cover.
Loosen the nut.
Turn screw clockwise until u feel it bottom out.
The counterclock wise 1/4 turn.
Tighten nut back.

Fixed! Turned out the second connector under the hood, tried to unplug and look at connection, could not wiggle apart, after 20 minutes trying! It shifts great now must have been corrosion and the wiggling got connection!
