Default 500 efi problems heeeellp!

hey guys,

after coming out of the woods today my 500 sportsman cut off for no reason. as it sputtered off the check engine light come on. she would start right back up and cut off 30 seconds later.

it checked the diagnostics and the battery read 11.7. is this too low?

what else could be wrong? is there any plugs that may have come loose. if so what do i need to check? If i can recall some wires on a sensor can fray causing this problem

this quad is in mint condition so i cant imagine what would be wrong with it

When you turn key on do you hear fuel pump priming up? one possible cause. Also what year model?
