2009 700RMK Electrical issues

I have a 2009 700 RMK it is ported, higher compression head, SLP pipe and can, and a fuel controller. I had it rebuilt and went through by FTX Motorsports this summer. I started getting it ready and and started it and the headlight, gauge, and controller wouldn't come on so I replaced the voltage regulator. I plugged it in fired it up everything came on then I went to go ride today and the headlight and guage wouldn't come on at all but the fuel controller would come on when I idled it up a little. What should I do or check? I plan on checking the voltage tomorrow morning but I just don't get why it would go bad again so fast. Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you!
 
Did you have the voltage regulator issue before the rebuild? Sometimes the ECU gets fried from the bad voltage regulator if ran to long on a bad one. It could also be your stator...or another bad voltage regulator, they have failed quickly before.
 
Check all your connections at the voltage regulator and at the front left corner under the hood to make sure they are clean and not corroded.

At the front left there is a 2 prong plug with a brown and a white/red wire I believe. If you apply 12 volts from a battery to it you will energize all the hood electrics including the gauge. That will tell you if you have any issues in them or their wiring to narrow down.

Thank you I will check that. And no it went bad when I brought it home the shop told me that he had to watch the temp gauge when he was doing heat cycles
 
Thank you for all of the help I wasn't getting power to that plug but I was getting power out of the vr so I replaced the relay and that was my problem. Hope this helps someone else also
