Default polaris electrical problems

Hope someone can help.....My battery recently went bad after 4 years so i replaced it. Now the atv starts perfectly but my battery indicator and the speedmeter needle are flashing and my low and high beams do not work however my rear utility lights do work when i turn them on. If anyone has any ideas as to what might be wrong I would appreciate any advice..............................Thanks

Start with the cheap check first, grounds. Like you said it's been 4 years.
Good Luck,
Doug
