Hello everyone.I am a new owner of CForce x8 eps from 2016. I realised that my lights are permanently on even I turn them off by the switch.Also I found an issue after turning the ignition the dashboard just flickering and wont show the clear image of the informations just sometimes.Where you suggest to start with investigating for my problems? Is any electrical issues or connection? Thank you.

The first thing i would do iís to check the conections to the dasbord and maybe put som elektrical spray or silicone greese to be realy sure to keep any moister ot of the conections. 

Do you live in europe and have it registred as euro 2 or euro 4 if so you have a small squere black thing on some cables and if you remove on of them you can turn off the lights

Your countries dealer and importer will have little or zero knowledge of this as their dealer support technical training network and technical bulletin reporting is potentially non-existent if it is the same as is here in the UK. Here in the UK they do not have the time or inclination to begin to understand or want to understand.  Their only aim being to sell quad bike bikes and quad bike parts, the majority of dealers here in UK are Garden Machinery providers for this type of quad bike, there are few that specialise in off road and on road quad bikes and the in depth technicalities and requirements. There are some professional & knowledgeable quad bike dealers, but they deal exclusively with racing quad bikes only.

Lights on:- This is a Euro 4 spec bike, under Euro 4 road use regulations you must have “Day Running” lights on your quad bike. Should you attempt to disconnect, remove a fuse, or modify your wiring or switch to turn them off you will be breaking the law. The bike will also fail its MOT because the “Day Running lights” will have been deactivated.

It is normal it’s been specifically designed this way to conform with Euro 4 Road use regulation, sorry you have little choice in the matter if you wish to use this bike on the roads of UK.

Embrace it & enjoy it I fitted an extra two LED day running lights to the front wings of my 800 X8, its brilliant especially for those junctions on tight country lanes where you have to poke out your nose to see if there is oncoming traffic. They cannot fail to see me especially with bespoke wing indicator repeater LED lights as well, it’s like Christmas but, more importantly they see me and therefore much safer for all of course.

Dash lights/display: - There is moisture or a poor connection on the dash harness connection, check the connection & repair if required, remove the moisture if present with a suitable moisture repellent. If this does not solve the problem, there may be an issue with the dashboard PCB.

Take care & enjoy your ride......Grandmaster Splash & his Furious Ride
