Default Xplorer 500, Electronics all dead

Battery is fine, I can bypass the Solenoid and Start the ATV via a screwdriver, but there are no lights, no AWD, AWD doesn't kick in, the starter button doesn't work

nor does the emergency switch off button work, nothing works at all.

But she does run fine when i bypass the solenoid.

I bought all new lights, and a new solenoid "thinking the old one was dead" and nuttin.

The breakers seem fine, I bypassed the main breaker and nothing.

Someone told me it was the Voltage Regulator that is dead, Cause i lost things 1 by 1, the AWD light died, (burnt out) the Front light died (not burnt out) the starter button would work maybe 10% of the time, now it doesn't work at all.

Any suggestions? Should i go ahead and try to get a new Voltage regulator?

Thanks

New symptom, Woke up this morning and Went to the ATV and sure enough, my electrical was back again. The 4x4 worked, the reverse light worked, even my backlight worked.

But when I brought her down from the Cylinder block, all electrical is dead again..

Loose wire? Short somewhere i'm not seeing? water? why would my electrical come back, then go away after 30 minutes or so (after i tossed her down from the block, maybe the sudden bang moved something?)

Fixed, was just the Kill switch not making contact...

/facepalm..

Remember folks, when your whole system just dies completely, always check the little things first.
