Belt keeps blowing after 200 miles, now high temp light is coming on. I have blown 3 belts in the last 500 or so miles. They are delaminating from the top ribs and then they blow apart. The last time this happened, I now have the high temp light coming on. When I stop and let it cool down for 10 minutes or so it will go off, but it comes back on after 5-10 miles. I would think it could be a wire or connector got damaged by the belt coming apart but with it going on then off and back on again I am not sure. The sled does not steam or feel like it is hot or even close to overheating. I do notice that my left foot starts to feel a little warm just before the light comes back on. Could something have gotten damaged when the belt blew? How do I fix both issues? I will be checking the alignment of the clutches and the motor mounts later today.
 
sounding like the belt is slipping and heating up. try a new primary spring and clean/scuff up the clutch faces with a scotch brite pad or sos pad.
