So help me god. If I can't get this quad running again, I'm going to roll it into the yard and light it on fire!!
Ok with that out of the way.
Like so many others, I'm having electrical problems. I've search and tried all the solutions people recommended in old threads.

This quad ran when I bought it. But it needed a carb cleaning, clutch repaired, neutral switch & other miscellaneous items.
So it sat for a few weeks while I gathered parts. Got everything back together, looking beautiful and... it's got no power. No lights, no crank, nothing. I checked the BRAND NEW battery, that worked perfectly a few weeks ago.
A full 5 volts. try a jump pack. Nothing. Not even a fart.
Pull the battery and get it on the charger. Start going through the wiring. Checked fuse=good. Discovered that someone replaced the key switch with an 02 switch. They just cut off the 2 black wires (on the key pigtail) that control the kill switch from the key (you couldn't turn off quad with the key, only handlebar switch). But quad ran ok a month prior.
I charged the battery, it came back to 12+ volts. Hooked it up. still nothing. Did the old wiggle trick and held my breath.
Sooo WTF. These quads are pretty basic. What would cause the battery to drain like that? Other than the key, it doesn't look like anyone's cut / spliced or added any goofy connectors to the harness.
