Default No dash or winch power

I have a 2005 Polaris Sportsman 600 twin. The engine sometimes starts, if it does not start I cycle the kill switch and then it will start, but I have no dash power or winch power. I replaced the kill switch and same problem. Any ideas, could it be a ignition switch?
Thanks for any help

Ignition switch is cheap,about 6-7 bucks on ebay,amazon. Check the wiring and connector on the switch to see if that's the problem also. If it's not a switch or wiring problem then possible it's the old ecm that was a constant problem. IF you still have the black Chinese ecm,it was on the recall for replacement and can be still replaced free of charge.https://www.cpsc.gov/Recalls/2008/po...to-fire-hazard If it has the silver US made ecm,the next one you'd have to pay for. Most common problem on them was power going in,but no power or erratic power out. Too many functions imo for this module to control. Has all the solid state breakers inside,controls the fan,hot light,controls charging,sends power to the rest of the machine,etc. item# 24 on the parts break down.
