yea id like to know how to jump start my atv? the pull start wont work. the indicator lights dont show up. i tried charging the battery and it sparked so the battery should be well enough to start it. i mean i tried everything to try and start it and it just doesnt give me any indications that it wants to start. i read the manual and supposively its the electrical board or something like that but that was fixed like 6 months ago. if anybody can help me it would be greatly appreciated.

Did you ever get any responses to your post or solve your problem?  I have the same issue with my 2003 Kodiak 450 Automatic.  There is enouch power to run the winch (not connected through the ignition switch) but as soon as any other electrical load is engaged, I can hear a relay or something switching under the seat and all power goes dead.  The display flashes random crap.  My next step is to make sure the battery is fully charged and will hold a charge, but that means I'm going to buy a battery charger.  The pull start is next to impossible.

yeah it sounds like a bad relay or blown fuse.

i wouldn't be surprized if you had to replace the board again.
