Default 2 new phoenix and won´t start

I recently had 3 new quads shipped over to my hotel in Spain from the UK, I purchased them 2 years ago and they have been stored in my Garage ever since, I took them out of the packing cages and put them together, taking each one for a short drive and parking them in the garage overnight.
The following morning 2 of them would not start, I have ignition but when pressing the starter nothing happens at all, with the ignition on I do not have indicators, headlights or hazards, the batteries are fully charged and the fuse by the battery is ok....any ideas!!??

Check all the battery connections, especially where the battery cables hook to the selenoid, I've seen the nuts under the battery cables on the selenoid be loose from the factory and cause this.

I have checked and cleaned all of the battery connections, and taken the cable off the solenoid/starter and made sure that the connection is clean etc, I have also checked and there is no power getting to the starter when the switch is pulled (there is power getting to the starter on my other Polaris Phoenix when the switch is pulled)...I would not mind but they started so easy after I had assembled them yet there does not seem to be any power foe lights or starting with the electric start (there will start with a kick start)...and its happened to 2 of them!!
