Hi, I have a '09 blue ice with 3400 miles and the last 2 times Ive been out the idle has gone up a bit, kinda runs rough and has even died but would start right back up. I checked this forum before stopping by the dealer and found others to have a simular problem and they found the battery terminals to be loose. Mine felt tight but I put a wrench on them anyway and was able to get about 1/8th turn. Tonite I rode it and had no issues. Lets hope thats all it takes.

Thanks guys for your input on this forum and those who maintain it !!!!

Bob

I have had the same issue. The last time I removed the battery cables and put locktite on the bolts and have
not had any issues since. Hope I haven't curse myself by writing this.LOL

Say swing by the hardware store and ask the guy for star washers there in the little bins where the nuts and bolts are.
One on each terminal and never come lose again.
