ON MY POLARIS IT WAS RUNNING FINE UNTIL IT JUST QUIT I COULD TURN THE KEY ON AND OFF AND THE KILL SWITCH BUT NOTHING WOULD COME ON LIGHTS WINCH ANYTHING THEN I HOOKED UP MY BATTERY JUMPER THINKING THAT IT MIGHT BE THE POWER SOURCE BUT STILL NOTHING I REPLACED THE STARTER CLUSTER ON MY HANDEL BARS BUT THAT DIDENT SOLVE ANYTHING BUT I NEEDED A NEW ONE ANY WAY. BUT I ALSO THINK IT COULD BE MY IGNITION SWITCH. I WAS ALSO WONDERING COULD I BYPASS MY KEY AND JUST PUT A TOGGEL SWITCH IN PLACE OF MY KEY IF I CAN PLEASE EXPLAN HOW I COULD DO THAT. IT WOULD ALSO SAVE ME 80$ SO I WOUKDENT HAVE TO BUY A SWITCH THANKS

 

I would take a test light - start at the battery - follow and test all the wires until you find where it fails

 

I DID THAT I GROUNDED MY LIGHT TO THE BATTERY THEN I TESTED RED GOING TO THE SILANOID AND IT LIT UP THEN I FOLLOWED IT TO THEWINCH SILANOID (RED) AND IT LIT UP SO I WENT BACK TO THE STARTER SILANOID AND TESTED IT AND NOTHING THE ONLY ONES THAT LIGHT UP WERE THA BATTERY BATTERY TO SILANOID AND SILANOID TO WINCH SILANOID. I DONT KNOW WERE ELSE TO GO FROM THERE IM NOT THE ELECTRICAL TYPE IN FACT I HATE WIRING IS THERE A FUSE ANY WHERE THAT COULD BE BAD THANKS

 

you said you got power to the solinoide from the battery. you should be able to jump the 2 big red wires on the solniode w/ the key switch on and it will turn the starter. maybe take the plug off the switch and test those to see if you have power going thru the switch to rule it out.
