Default Low Voltage Kodiak

For some reason the voltage at my power point on mmy 98 Kodiak has dropped to 10 volts. I have checked the voltage at the battery and it is 14. This is also affecting my cooling fan.

I am suspecting that i have a loose/bad ground somewhere. As this is connected into the stock wiring harness I was wondering where the ground is located.

Any help is gratly appreciated

Thats a no load reading of 10 volts?
Id try the main terminals on the battery first, and if they look ok, then youre gonna just have to trace the wire back, and look for where it gets to the frame. My wiring diagrams dont go back that far. Or you could look at the Ronnies site, in the atv parts finder, under that model. There will be a page for wiring harness, and you could get a good idea where it is from that.

Figured it out. After washing the quad, got 13 volts but nothing would work on the powerpoint.

Found the fuse (left rear) it was caked with mud, however was not blown. Cleaned out all the fine mud and replaced the fuse an everything works now
