ECU Bad

I just purchased a 2005 sportsman 700 twin efi. I rode it for 2+ hours and was very happy. Decided to give it a good bath (pressure washer), all went well. I started it 8 or10 times and rode it for 10 or so minutes. parked it in the garage and the next day it would not start.I finally got a manual and THINK that I have run most of the tests, now I’m thinking the ECU has gone bad?????? I could really use some advise before I spend $400.00 for something I may not need. The motor will turn over, no fuel pump or pressure. I have 4.5 volts going to the pump THANK YOU in advance for any help.

Suspension bushings

I have 2010 polaris 550xp. I have various bushings, ball joints, tie rods etc. That need to be replaced. Where is a hood reasonably priced place to get these things. I found some poly ones on eBay I don’t know if those are good or not though
