Can-Am Commander 800R / 1000 (2014) UTV Service Manual Collection

Use the workshop chapters for diagnosis and repair, the illustrated catalogs to match parts to the vehicle’s model code and market, and the operator’s guides for controls, pre-ride checks, loading, and owner maintenance.

Required companion manual. For procedures outside the supplement’s coverage, BRP directs technicians to the separately available 2013 Commander Shop Manual (P/N 219 100 661). The engine removal and installation entry in this collection covers the revised propeller-shaft attachment only.

PDF Search, Bookmarks, and Wiring Diagram Detail

Text search and diagram labels. The main text is searchable. The CE wiring diagram is image-based, and small labels on the wiring diagrams are best read at higher zoom. Bookmarks lead to the main workshop sections, the parts catalog section, and the operator’s guides. The three individual parts catalog bookmarks do not jump directly to their catalogs.

The download is one printable English PDF with 1,260 pages, including 158 supplementary catalog pages. Covers, blank pages, and notes pages are included in the total.

Engine, Drivetrain, and Electrical Service

This selection of workshop topics also includes examples from the service bulletins, such as matching front and rear suspension springs by model and identifying paint codes by trim.

• Engine repair: Cylinder-head and valve inspection, piston and crankshaft measurements, crankcase disassembly, camshaft timing, and lubrication-system troubleshooting.
• CVT and drivetrain: Drive and driven pulley service, gearbox disassembly, 4x4 actuator checks, shifter cable adjustment, and front and rear drive repairs.
• Scheduled maintenance: Break-in and periodic maintenance schedules, fluid and filter service, cooling-system bleeding, storage preparation, and submerged-vehicle recovery.
• Fuel and engine management: Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI), Intelligent Throttle Control (iTC), fuel-pressure and sensor tests, and Engine Control Module (ECM) replacement setup.
• Steering and suspension: Separate steering procedures for vehicles with and without Dynamic Power Steering (DPS), torque offset reset, and LTD Air Controlled Suspension (ACS) leak testing.
• Electrical diagnosis: Ignition, charging, and starting-system tests, fault-code tables, Digitally Encoded Security System (D.E.S.S.) key programming, and system wiring diagrams.
• Parts identification: Exploded assemblies with part numbers, quantities, and regional applications across the three model-specific catalogs.

The workshop material is written for technicians familiar with BRP service procedures and equipped with the specified hand tools, special tools, and diagnostic equipment.

Rotax Engine and CVT Inspection

The engine chapters cover leak-down testing, valve-guide and seat inspection, piston-to-cylinder measurements, timing-chain service, and crankshaft bearing checks. The lubrication circuit schematic helps trace oil flow when investigating low oil pressure or excessive oil consumption.

CVT coverage includes pulley bushings, rollers, and the one-way clutch. The manual cautions against clamping the governor cup in a vise during roller bearing-sleeve removal because the cup can be damaged. Gearbox coverage includes internal shafts, shift forks, and gear-position sensor initialization. The tool listings identify the camshaft timing tool (P/N 529 036 231) and pinion nut socket (P/N 529 036 274).

Cooling System Service

The maintenance chapter distinguishes the 800R and 1000 bleeding arrangements and covers system leak testing and pressure-cap checks. The 1000 supplement shows the relocated thermostat housing and revised hose routing. The coolant bulletin explains why mixing the orange long-life coolant with the earlier green coolant can form a gel that restricts flow.

EFI, iTC, and Wiring Diagnostics

The fuel-system diagnostic flowchart accompanies pump-pressure, injector, and sensor tests. Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) initialization, ECM replacement setup, and D.E.S.S. key programming use the applicable B.U.D.S. software and diagnostic interface.

Harness and splice locations, connector pinouts, and separate General, ACS, DPS, and CE wiring diagrams help trace a circuit from the fault-code table to the relevant connector or component.

DPS Alignment and LTD Air Suspension

The DPS chapter shows how steering alignment and tightening sequence affect torque-sensor readings. These checks help distinguish mechanical preload from an electrical fault before replacing the steering unit.

The LTD suspension section covers the Suspension Control Module (SCM), compressor, valves, pressure sensing, and pneumatic connections. B.U.D.S. pressure monitoring and leak tests help isolate faults when the suspension cannot build, release, or hold pressure.

Oil Drain Torque and Fuel Pressure Examples

The engine oil change procedure specifies 30 N·m ± 2 N·m for the engine oil drain plug.

For static and running fuel-pump tests, the fuel system chapter specifies 350 kPa ± 10 kPa (51 PSI ± 1 PSI) at 12 V ± 0.1 V. It also explains how a rapid pressure drop after shutdown directs the leak check toward the fuel line, rail, or pump check valve.
