DC Regulator/Rectifier
DC-CFI Chassis Power Capacitor
There are two generations of capacitors used on PRO-
RIDE snowmobiles. The first generation is mounted on
top of the DC regulator/rectifier located on the clutch
cover.
Second generation capacitors housed in a weather-tight
po
uch taped to the wiring harness located on the right
over structure frame tube.
Capacitor Testing
1. Charge the capacitor for 10
seconds using a 12 volt
battery by connecting the positive (+) lead to the Red/
White wire and the negative (-) lead to the brown wire.
2. Monitor the capacitor voltag
e with a multimeter. The
voltage should slowly drain down from the initial
charge. If the cap does not hold a charge or drains
rapidly, replace the component.
DC-CFI AC Regulator/Battery Charge
Rectifier
DC-CFI models feature an AC regulator/DC (battery
charge) rectifier. The AC regulator/battery charge rectifier
only regulates AC voltage and charges the battery (when
equipped). It does not supply VDC to the instrument
cluster or accessory power points.
