400EX Electrical problem: For starters, the quad is able to run when jump started. The light switch was quirky and often had to be played with in order to stay on. I had the assmebly apart to inspect the switch itself and noticed some exposed copper on one of the wires. I put everything back together and thats when the problem grew from a light switch not working to a problem with the electrical system.

There are no lights including the neutral light when the ignition is turned on. Nothing at all, it it just DEAD. If I play with the light switch when the motor is running (from a jump start) all the lights flicker and the quad runs fine. OIbviously I need a switch assembly, but is that it? Is something else shorted? What do I need and what will it cost?

um you might just want to check your fuse to see if you blown that might be some where to start before having to buy all that stuff
