Need new eps unit

Folks, it’s been a while since I was on here last. My 2010 550 eps unit has shat the bed. I spliced in a new relay to no avail. Electrical tests with the multimeter show power. My dealer is worthless and wants me to drop off my wheeler for 4+ weeks just to reflash the eps unit. As I use my wheeler almost daily around the house and the occasional ride, dropping it off for a month is not happening. I’ll be making the two hour drive to another dealer when time permits. I’m looking at the worst case and thinking I need a new unit. Im surprised my dealer can even spell Polaris without looking up, I won’t ask them anything questions. My question, what years and machines power steering units cross over to the 2010 sportsman xp? Anyone have compatible eps model numbers handy? 2413038 is the "new" part number cycleparts has listed. I’ll never pay msrp for a new one so I’m be looking on eBay I guess.
Thanks in advance

Over heating

I have a 500 atp, bought it used from a friend, ran it all summer, brought it with me to california. Used it a few times, but now the last couple of times it stopped idling, over heat symbol came on. Thought maybe cause it had sat for a month maybe the thermostat had stuck closed, took it out and no difference. ordered and replaced the water pump and accessaries and replaced no difference. Fan comes on and stays on, to point where it kills the battery. thinking maybe sensor is stuck in hot mode, hence signalling engine is hot and tells fan to run???

Help!!
