Sportsman 500 Engine Hot

I have a 2008 Sportsman 500 HO. I didn’t have power and finally traced it to the ECM. I cleaned it and connected it powered up and starts which is great. Now it starts blinking and says HOT check engine after I turn it off. I ran it and it never said HOT until I turned it off. I went out this morning and started it for 2 seconds and turned it off and it said the same thing. There is now way it can get hot that quick. Let me know what yall think. Thanks, Neil
