Cat Magnetic tether on 2017 XTX

[GR8BBQ]

Installed a Cat magnetic tether on my sled this fall. I tapped into the kill switch circuit and it seems to work fine. Just need some snow to test in real life.

Part number?

Part number?

8639-075 for 4 stroke machines; you need the "normally closed" version. Should be about $60. US.

Detail on wiring in another thread:

Anyone else figure out how to wire this up? It doesn't appear that my sled has the harness plug under the dash. I know there was someone on Snowest making the connector harness thats missing but I'm not having any luck contacting him.

I finally got around to changing the tether cord to match the sled....

I have been running one of these for the last 3-4 seasons and it works great. Much better then the old version.

Agree, I like my addition very much, and it works great. I haven't needed it to save me yet, but I know I'm glad I have it.
