Sounds like maybe the ECM, check with your dealer to see if yours needs to be replaced under the Polaris recall. You'll need the VIN when you call or go there.

IF you want to send me your vin via PM and i can run it for you. Keep in mind there is a little personal info involved(name, address, phone number etc) It's up to you.

If I had to bet, I'd say the ecm is toast like the sheepdog said.
