brenty 02-07-2002, 07:19 AM I have a 94 Indy 500 EFI. At idle RPM's(about 1800) all my lights are dim and my oil warning light is flashing. When I ride the sled it stops doing this. It seems as soon as the RPM's get above 3000 everything is fine! I am going on a long trip this weekend and need any help possible to fix this tonight! curt234 02-07-2002, 03:42 PM By all lights which lights are on? and when it idles higher than 1800 the lights shut off? madsledhead 02-07-2002, 07:05 PM Hi, Just a thought, but have you ever considered raising your idle speed. My daugters 93 classic did the same thing. She would park it and the headlights would dim. I check all the specs on the mag/coil/stator plate etc. with a digital multimeter and all checked out to factory numbers Clutch engagement is 4200, I set the idle for 2500. re-syncronized the carbs and have not had a problem in two years. It is a real pain in the but when you stop on the trail to look at somthing and your lights dim down. good luck snowmobster 02-09-2002, 02:53 AM lights dimming normal unless you have a regulator problem at that rpm. oil light comming on sounds like a bad sending unit in the oil tank. how much oil in tank? will it happen with a full tank of oil or any time? let me know. brenty 02-11-2002, 09:23 AM The problem happens with different levels of oil. I just rode about 400 miles on the weekend, so I know the oil is being used! snowmobster 02-16-2002, 03:24 AM </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote (brenty @ Feb. 11, 2002, 10:23am)</td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">The problem happens with different levels of oil.
