have a look at the two wires off back of coil above carbs

Electrical issues always start with the basics. I've had problems like that on older sleds and turned out to be the stator.

Check the main plug from the stator, Mini....seems to be a common issue, especially if you removed any wires when/if you pulled the engine. A friend had the same issue with his 872 2 weeks ago, it was the stator.

first-Check wires coming out/in the regulator rectifier,they rub against the bulk head and short.
Next- remove ECM plug and put light amount of dielectric grease on the plug and seal. Seems to be another issue with water shorting out the ECM.
Last-I've had multiple start/rer switches go bad, replace the switch assy with a new one. (sled deck+no cover=ELECTRICAL ISSUES)

HOPE THIS HELPS.
