My emergency brake will not hold. Ever since then Unit will not run. Showing 217 error code?

Has the recall on the parking brake assembly been performed? If not Polaris will do under warranty.

I checked with Polaris. They referred me to the Dealer, he declined. I have not tried adjusting the parking brake spring/mechanism; you think this might be an issue?

Why the 217 error code. I too note that it does not show up as a “valid code” in the Operations Manual!

There was a post as to doing a “wiring bypass” of the Emergency Brake Switch”. How do I get to it? Newbie to forum!
