A flashing battery light while driving on your Polaris 700 EFI could indicate a problem with the charging system. Here are a few possible causes:
Faulty alternator: The alternator is responsible for charging the battery while the engine is running. If the alternator isn't working properly, the battery won't receive a sufficient charge and the battery light may flash.
Loose or corroded battery connections: If the battery connections are loose or corroded, the battery won't be able to receive a full charge from the alternator.
Failed voltage regulator: The voltage regulator regulates the output of the alternator. If the voltage regulator fails, it can cause the battery light to flash.
Failed battery: If the battery is failing, it may not be able to hold a charge even when it's being charged properly.
It's a good idea to have your Polaris 700 EFI checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose and fix the problem.
My 2005 polaris Sportsman 500 does this in the winter when plowing, but only sometimes when pushing the override button to go backwards in 4x4. A friend told be to check the differential fluid levels in the rear for my machine. Have not done this yet.
brakes might be out of adjustment or no pads left. you been riding in water ? dirt will get on the brakes and wear the pads out fast especially if it sandy ? pull the tires and check the pads and see if you have any left left, if so, adjust them. you can get a manual on adjusting brakes on yamahas online.
