According to what I know from studying the electric diagram, the glow plugs are directly wired to the starter switch - direct from switch to glow plug. The glow lamp is off that circuit with a 5amp fuse. I don't see a fuse or relay related to the glow plugs themselves. You should be able to...

This sounds like same problem I had with the driver door latch on my X1100C! The pull rod had a very small push-on clip that was supposed to keep the rod in place. I couldn't find in because it is so small. I ordered one to see what it looks like - no wonder it didn't last - it is tiny. I...

No - If I had more time I would have tried, but I needed to get back to plowing! Taking pictures inside the door panel would have been difficult as it is really tight in there. The parts diagram for the mechanism shows the parts.

I was out plowing this morning and when I went to go fuel up I found I could not open my door. I had to climbed out the passenger door. The thumb latch on the door worked fine, but the inner latch had become unconnected. I gave up plowing to work on this and indeed found the rod the connects...

Is there coolant in the reservoir? My two RTV's (2014 X900) and (2021 X1100C) both arrived with very slow coolant leaks that I initially saw via the level of coolant in the reservoir dropping slowly. I found two slow leaks where rubber hoses clamped on to steel pipes. Difficult to find and...

I am pleased to hear this - now I want one!

I can see that with the longer bed it is easy to have the load not forward enough. The machine can certainly handle that load, it is just seems a bit too far back. I am always amazed at how well engineered RTV's are. I've had two over 11 years and, while I am respectful of the machine, I have...

I put 11,000 miles and 1,700 hours on my 2014 X900 and never replaced the battery and had no starter problems. It always started well in winter when temps were below 10 degrees. I turned it off when I was going to be more than a minute at one spot. I checked my oil when hot - just gave it a...

I would certainly place this tape on when it is at least room temperature, but I can say that at 0 degrees F it has held up well. The material does conform quite well to contours if not really sharp. You can get a sense of how well it has worked on my tractor and RTV seat and they are not flat...

My three-year old X1100C with 6,500 miles (800 hours) developed a crease tear at about 4,000 miles (my X900 did the same thing). I tried to make a repair using Permatex Vinyl Repair Kit, but that was only marginally successful. I finally decided to try Besezx Leather Repair Tape and after a...

Thank you all for your advice and recommendations. I went to the ALLA site and they suggested three of their lamps to consider. I ended up purchasing the ALLA-880-ETI-56 W - 6000K Xenon White for $20.00/pair with free shipping. I went with the less expensive option as I have LED lamps on the...

I would love to have the blower on mine - although I love the V-plow. I am looking forward to hearing how it works for you. The dealer I was going to purchase one from said they gave up selling them as they were "problematic" and they did not want to deal with them.

It might be something to do with the registry of vehicles - a set of standards that must be met for any vehicle traveling on public roads. In my State every vehicle must meet certain requirements for what the vehicle will be used for - ie, agriculture, public transportation, commercial...

Here is something I generated so it would be convenient for me. I usually purchase two 5 gallon pails of the SUDT-2 to do the job. It takes some time to do the entire fluid change. Good Luck. Fluid and Filter Chart RTVX 1100C UP DATED: 7/2024 Fluids Location Type Quantity Frequency...

Thank you - there are just so many variations of these I wanted to be sure what I order will work well! I appreciate the help!!
